Hello Mama's friends!
Last night Mama and Papa went out and I was alone at home.
Then there were big booms outside!
I didn't know what was going on! It's my job to defend the den so I looked out the window, then out the front door, and I even ran to the back door. I couldn't see anything!
But the booms kept on coming and people were yelling something about the 4th of July and "Wooo" and I thought there was some kind of evil attack.
Maybe the Super Sinister Squirrels had finally organized together! Or, worse still, the Evil Kitty Cats! I know they are planning to take over the planet... it's just a matter of time.
I barked a warning at some other dogs on my block and they barked back that they were on Full Den Defence Alert too. Look after your dog because we are all that stands between you and slavery to the Kitty Cat Overlords! We are the Thin Furry Line!
Mama and Dada left the TV on but that didn't help distract me. There was some silly movie on with a big hairy ape, a woman in a white dress with strange round ears, a blonde guy who looked bored all the time, two robots and some man in a black dress with a speech impediment. And lots of strange flying birds that shot out bright red pee. No dogs at all!
The booms kept on coming and I stood guard at the door, ready for action! I was practising my lion growls and my Kung fu leaps and my hippo-jaw bites in my head. Haai-YA!
But then Mama and Dada came home and they gave me a snack and patted my head and everything was alright again.
I bet that other dogs, like me, were extra vigilant, and the Evil Kitty Cat Attack was delayed.
I say delayed because I know those horrible cats.... they never give up. BEWARE!
Lots of licks and woofs,
Puppy Dog
