Super pooped!

 Me: You've both been such good dogs, let's do errands and a walk!

Schmoop: Yes, walk!

Middy: Yes, walk OMG HARNESS WHY ok yes, walk.

Me: What a good walk, many accomplishments, let's go home for some chicken chicken and snuggles!

Schmoop: Yes I would like the treats and snuggles! Super pooped!

Middy: I would also like the treats and snuggles! Super pooped! Exhausted! *hangs limp and lifeless* *must be helped into the car. So tired*

Me: OK Schmoop (leashless), straight to the gate.

Schmoop: Yes'm, that is my duty as guard dog. *goes to gate*

Me: *holding the second leash I keep on Middy even after I've taken off the backup collar because Dangernoodle is a menace* OK, Middy, straight to the gate. My poor tired girl. What a good girl you were! Is treat time! Special treat!

Middy: *slipping leash like Houdini on any given Tuesday* FREEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!

Me: ......

Middy (racing past at mach 9): FREEEEE * SONIC BOOM* DOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!!

Me: *trudging down the alley*

Middy: SQUIRRELS! ALSO FREEEEEDDDOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!!!

(20-30 minutes ensue of my extremely obnoxious horrible awful dog racing laps around me as I trudge my sad middle aged self up and down a hillside before finally enticing her with cheese)

Middy: Old Mommy, I am super pooped and then some! Good treats?

Me: Humph.

I SHARE OLD MOMMY TREAT!!! *starts licking at now beer-soaked bedding* LOOK, OLD MOMMY'S TURN!!! POLITE SHARE! Me, declining to politely share the bed-beer: Middy. I love you very, very much. *restrains Middy from beer, restrains self from strangling Middy* *grumbles off to grab a towel* *starts mopping up beer, which fortunately was mostly absorbed by the liner I have down* *MOSTLY* At least it wasn't an IPA. Schmoop: HUMPH.

Also if you see me wearing pants with a perfectly round patch, understand she did that WHILE I WAS WEARING THE PANTS. My lil girl is very, very sneaky.)
