Backyard dogs

Dear neighbour,

I know that when you saw our dogs flush out a guy casing the street in some bushes near your house that you were really impressed. Then some kids turned over your house when you were away and your thoughts turned to security. Why not get a Bull Arab pup to look after the house? Tops plan.

When you got this lovely dog I popped next door to offer my congratulations on your new family member - and to offer our help if you should ever need it. He's a stunningly beautiful dog with a lovely temperament. Now you've been gone for four days, and no-one has been around to feed or water your dog in the middle of the Australian summer. Except your neighbours, who, bizarrely, noticed that he was there alone because he was barking non-stop from 4:00am to 5:30am every morning.

I notice also that your shed is wide open, and because he is bored shitless, your dog has pulled a bunch of stuff out of it to play with, including electrical cords. They weren't plugged in to anything - lucky for him, hey? I hope when you get home you understand it was your fuck-up to leave the shed door open, and not his fault.

We've popped a big bucket of water out for him and dropped some food over the fence. I hope you're coming home soon, because he's obviously missing you more than we do.

No love,

The chick next door
