A Visit From Watson

May 19, 2024 14:07

 We dogsat--um, sitted?--for a friend's canine last week, and enjoyed it very much. As many of you know, our own dog, Beowulf, passed away last July.


Watson resembled Beowulf quite a bit, actually. Watson has had a hair cut, but I saw photos from before and it really was uncanny. Both are rescues, and came from further south of us, so I suppose some relation is possible.


Watson is more solid, though, for want of another word. One thing in common: So darned cute.


He wouldn't get up on furniture unless invited, and even after he'd been on the couch and bed he still wouldn't climb up again without an invitation. A very well behaved dog.


I was surprised that at ten years old Watson still likes to play hard. He tired me out pretty quickly.


He also loves to snuggle. Yes, I did call him Beowulf several times, but he didn't seem to mind.


Remember: Pets love booklovers; they can snuggle while reading..
