Lenore
I spy Judy returning from behind the garage. The black and white face of our leashed human Dalmatian follows and he has a look of relief, as one who has been shot at and missed.
Our pup thinks that with the darkness and the serving of coffee his afternoon is over. Well, Beverly is both intrigued and somewhat giddy with drink, and she is not one who ends a soiree with a simple anticlimactic good night and a wave goodbye.
Theres our little beast. she exclaims with mocked enthusiasm.
Its time for Willie the dog to give the birthday girl a nice present. Lets see what has he brought? I dont see anything for her.
Beverly grabs the leash, which Judy knows to relinquish with a confident smile. The sizable woman gruffly tugs, dragging a comically crawling Willie toward Chloe.
