Chapter Three
Well I was tired and I think people should make excuses for other people, (or dogs) when they’re tired, especially when a guy’s been looking after the house all day when his parents are out gallivanting... don’t you?
I do love them both and they’re very kind to me... more than the first people that I lived with were to me for the first eighteen months of my life... You see, it was Chas who decided he wanted to have another pet about a year after their last Boxer died... and he came all the way from London to Preston to pick me up, not knowing what I’d look like or what sort of a character I would be... and I think that is very kind. After all, I could have been a monstrous villain of a beast instead of the nice, gentle, firm but fair doggie I am... not to mention my handsome good looks and all that other stuff... eh?... but then Charlie and Chas. love Boxers and they wanted another white boxer soon after the last one died as he was white too and they said the house was empty when they came home in the evening and Charlie said she hated coming home when there was no warm snout to greet her... so they got me. Tarrah ra rah!... and I’m in charge of the house when they’re out. They don’t leave me very long on my own, mind you... No more than three hours and if it should be longer than that they always arrange for a dog-sitter to come in, just to see that I’m alright and not getting too lonely... Mrs. Parviter is her name and she is very nice, except that I’m not keen or her earrings... too flash for my liking, but I wish she’d get to know where Charlie keeps the bikkys.
Anyway as I have said I had had a hard days house guarding that particular day and I was tired, but when Chas. and Charlie arrived home with two of their friends, Robert and Louise. I had hoped they might play with me for a little while before they got nattering, about all sorts of uninteresting things that would bore you to tears, but they didn’t. They all came in straight away and made tea and ate cakes and things and chatted about everything... except me... and I was not only tired, but I was annoyed as well... so I thought I might do a little something to make then realize that I was there... I did it twice and nobody said anything, but then on the third time Robert looked at Louise and Louise looked at Charlie and Charlie stared at Chas. before he called out for me to behave myself... and I thought that was very unfair. After all they give me all this lovely food, so what do they expect and I try to do it without making any noise... Well a gentle hissing sound maybe, but nothing more.
