Head Pets – Conversation with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Me: Come over here, Doodle.

Sweetie: I’ll come over.

Me: Okay, but I still want Doodlebug to come.

MoonCat: Are you giving out treats?

Me: Not right now. Just head pets.

Sweetie: I’ll take one.

MonnCat: Me, too. Briefly.

Me: Come on, Doodle Boy. Head pets.

Doodlebug: Is this a trick?

Me: Since when is a head pet a trick?

Doodlebug: How do I know it’s not an attempt to control me?

Me: Don’t you like head pets?

Doodlebug: Yes. More than just about anything. Which makes them just the sort of thing humans would use to get their way.

Me: So…head pet?

Doodlebug: Yes, please. I guess it’s worth the risk.
