Riley Visited Us

Lucy here. Riley was my first boyfriend. We had some really good times together. Then, about a year ago (which, as you know, is something like seven years to us dogs), he and Andrew went away and the next time I saw him he wouldn’t have anything to do with me. Never any explanation. I’d just been dumped. Mom said it was  because Riley knew he wasn’t going to see me and was protecting his heart. But what about my heart?

Then, out of the blue (or gray, really, since it was raining), Riley came back. He gave me the ugly face at first, but I think it is because his folks were eating and he didn’t want me to get his portion. A little later he wagged his tail at me and said we could be friends again. That made me feel good. He has put back on all the weight that he didn’t need to lose and his furs are shiny and healthy-looking again. Even though his muzzle has gotten a bit gray, he looks so handsome, just like he used to.

Brother Andrew and our Jentry came and visited too. It has been way too long. I sat near them all evening until they had to leave. Riley promised to come back to visit again soon. Maybe next time we can run and play outside, just like old times. That sure would be fun.

Love and waggy tails, Lucy

  2. So I guess Big Boy wants to have what I’ve heard called an open relationship. I guess that would work ok and I can stop being mad at him. Lucy
    Riley doesnt want a girlfriend any more, just a friend. Xena
    Shut up Xena. Lucy
