Adam: That’s a nasty gash. How did you pick that up?
Me: Lola and I were playing with one of her toys yesterday. She tried to grab it out of my hand as I was pulling it away. She missed the toy and bit my hand, and since I was already pulling away, her puppy teeth cut my skin as I pulled it away.
Adam: Ouch.
Me: Yeah.
With a grin a glance Laura’s direction to make sure she’s listening. I shake my head in mock sorrow…
Me: But the worst part is that now that she’s tasted blood, we’re going to have to put her down. We can’t have a dog that bites.
Laura: Noooo!

You couldn’t bear to part with her. I know how sweetly you talk to her when you think no one is listening. 🙂
Just killing her with kindness, my dear.
