what is it now

My puppy ran past me with purpose I was thinking squirrel or rabbit Relieved he returned empty mouthed Not like the time he dropped a dead squirrel At my feet in the living room Frozen, it landed with a clunk next to my bare foot

I am rarely shocked actually, my father was a fur dealer - we had pelts and skinned everything around when I was young.
