Seeing through

I just had a heart to heart with one of my dogs (sortof). Frak (yes, brother of Frik), who is the dominant one, the “scary” one, the one who believes he is in charge. Well, until Sandy sets him straight…

Anyway, after being gone for a bit this afternoon and then feeding them when I got back, Frak came up to me and licked my face in a rare expression of affection. I think he could feel that it was a rough day and has been a rough couple of weeks. He’s intuitive like that. I said to him, “I know you try to be the badass, but you’re actually nothin’ but a mush.” He turned away, so I continued, “and you know that I know, and that’s why you can’t even look at me.” I chuckled, he sighed, gave my nose a quick lick then jumped down.

I think we have an understanding now…
