I hear little whimpers from out in the yard. He is searching everywhere, looking really hard. Then I realize he is missing his littler toy dog. He looks in an old bucket and under a log. I realize I haven’t seen it for quite a while. He continues to look all around the wood pile. I’ll help you look, I wont leave you in the lurch. We will find it. I will help you. I care I search. Then in the garden I see stuffing from his toy. I hide it from my old dog, he is such a good boy. Birds have taken most of it to build their nest. I take it in, stitch more stuffing in, it looks its best. When he isn’t looking I toss it near the wood pile. He soon finds it. Who said dogs don’t smile?
