Pretzel’s tail thumped lightly on the floor at the ear and chin scratches. If he were so annoying, he was certain he would not be receiving such good attention from his friend. No, he was a good dog! The ‘best pupper,’ as his parents liked to say.

And now that Enis was here, he could bother her whenever he decided they were boring and he needed a break from them being too sweet and silly with each other. So, permission or not, she would undoubtedly be seeing more of the little hound whenever he got out from under their noses.

It doesn’t take particularly long for Pretzel to gobble up his treat, so she wouldn’t be waiting long for her little lookout to be ready to go. It doesn’t even take much prompting to get the dog to follow her, especially since he knew the apartment she wanted to snoop around well.
