We kept our two grandsons, ages 3 and 5, from Kansas City over night last night. First time to stay with us without mom and dad. Due to mom’s extreme allergies they have had very little access to puppies, cats and other live animals.
Just after mom and dad left for a night of alone time I opened the door to the garage and three medium sized dogs rushed by me to see who the new voices belonged to. Immediately we had terrorized screaming from the other room. I mean, climb the nearest lamp pole terror. We had two very upset screaming kids looking for a place to hid from three dogs who wanted nothing less than to lick there faces. Hands held high, stomachs sucked in, midriffs bare, extra high pitched voices, dancing and screaming along with flashing doggie tongues. What a scene.
By bed time the boys were fighting to see who would get to sleep with which dog! They hugged and petted them until the dogs were looking for places to hid. Quite a change from just hours before.
This morning both boys were looking for things in the kitchen that they could feed to the dogs. I mean feed from their hands/fingers. They thought it funny when they would get licked in the process.
Now, their challenge will be to get mom to cave in and allow a dog…not going to happen…EVER!
