Its a Dogs Life

"It's fine," he lied, breathing through his mouth as he continued, "I over reacted, sorry." Looking around for something else to focus on, he wondered how long it would last...
 
Rose sat down knowing this would be really hard for him. "Are you sure it's only going to get worse," she barked bowing her head.
 
Doc cocked his head to the side, "Do you want me to leave?" he asked wondering if he had interupted her quiet time or something.
 
"No...your fine, Doc." Prinny smiled her awkward smile at him, and felt a pang of unsettling go through her. She had met him yesterday, and it seemed she was nothing but trouble to him. Shaking her head so her ears fell into her face, she playfully 'hid' from him.
 
Prinny laughed lightly, before rolling onto her back and staring at him as her ears fell away. "Maybe your eyes are going?" She joked.
 
Doc smiled, "If my eyes go, we are in trouble. How am I supposed to limp and lumber through the woods after you if I can't see a tree in front of me," he barked.
 
"Well, I suppose you won't be able to. So I guess that means we act like old muts and sits on the porch all day..." Prinny replied with a soft bark.
 
"I suppose it does." Prinny said softly with a sigh. Putting her head back down on her crossed paws, she looked at him. "What would you suggest then?"
 
"No, it's alright, really," he fibbed, slowly padding towards her, head low and nostrils flared. crap CRAP CRAP CRAP... he thought as he got closer, finally nudging her chin and sitting beside her. He felt so odd, so attracted, that it almost hurt to deny himself to pleasure of her. Looking skyward, he was silently praying for night to come so that the scent of the other dogs would somewhat mask her odor. It was insane how addictive it was. He hadn't even thought about it before, and now he wanted nothing more than her. Not to be alpha, not to be respected... just her... How peculiar, he thought.
 
Doc smiled, "I think I would I have to hold onto your tail and never let go. That way I would not have to lumber through the woods looking for you," he barked playfully batting at her tail.


Rose smiled and tucked her tail more firmly knowing it would not really help. She heard the sound of a car pulling into the driveway.


Matt walked into the barn whistling for Rose and Bear. They needed one more check up before he started evening feeding.


Rose stood up, "I think that was Matt," she barked worriedly. Matt would notice and he might put her in confinement until she went out of heat.
 
Bear got to his full stature, loping through the door as he was called and approaching the man with a wagging tail. Stuffing his nose in between Matt's ankles, he snuffed the outside scents, curious to see what he could learn from the smell of grass and other dogs.
 
Rose stood up stood up and jogged after Bear wagging her tail as if nothing was going. Matt smiled and started walking into the vet room. Rose followed drooping her tail slightly but not much. "Your happy," she whispered to Bear. He never acted this excited to see Matt.
 
"Eh," he scoffed, head drooping and and shoulders sagging as he paced back and forth beside Rose, "Isn't he here to let us outside though?"
 
"Yes, but you wouldn't be able to bark, or smell properly. And what if I out ran you? You'd probably pull my tail right off." Prinny replied jokingly, though finding the thought rather cute. Flicking her tail out of his reach, she gave him a toothy grin.
 
Doc crawled forward on his belly so he had a better angle to grab her tail. "See but if you left me than you would have to deal with my ridiculous baying. I can howl yowl and bark for hours like any good hound dog," he barked before starting to demonstrate. He stopped after a thirty seconds of non-stop noise. "YOu want to hear more?" he barked grinning. He knew it could get really annoying after a while.


Rose shook her head, "He isn't going to let us out OUT for a week at least," she barked as Matt began to examine her wound. She sighed as in relief when he did not notice.
 
"What?" he snarled, looking at Matt with hate in his eyes. "You can't be serious? I can NOT stay inside for another week!" Somewhere between ready to whine and lunging at Matt with the intent to seriously injure, he frowned, tail drooping and ears pivoting back. Straying back into the barn's heart, he began to paw at the door that lead outside, whining loudly to leave.
 
Matt sighed, "Sorry buddy its your punishment for starting a fight and messing with my girl," he said rubbing Rose's ears. He checked Rose's food dish and noticed she had not eaten. "Come on," he said nudging her softly into the stall. He locked the door, "You need to eat," he said turning to look at Bear's food dish.
 
Bear whined, perched on his back legs and using the door to keep upright. He whined, scratching at and looking over his shoulder to Matt, who was in his stall. Turning and racing back towards him, he peered in, seeing his full food dish and rolling his shoulders in a shrug. He clamped his jaws on the leg of Matt's pants, tugging him back towards the door, whining.
 
Prinny stared at him as he howled, before shaking her head. "That was....quite enough, thank you." She barked back, licking his nose playfully as she stood and trotted around him. "And really, would you do that to a lady?"
 
Matt looked down at Bear, "What is wrong with you? She will be let out in a second but first you have to eat too," he said shaking his leg a little. He peeked into Rose's stall wondering if she was done quite yet.


Doc smiled, "I thought howling was cute," he barked playfully.
 
"It is." Prinny said, barking out a laugh before padding over to the middle. Plopping her but down in the clover, she stared at him, tail wagging.
 
Bear whined more loudly, tugging harder on the man's pant leg, trying to drag him towards the door. He needed to both relieve himself and regain his freedom.
