People Puppies (by Rhodry)

April 21, 2006

Maddie has extra people at her house. Maddie is my friend. We live in the same house but not in the same house! She lives downstairs and I live upstairs. Sometimes I sniff on Maddie's porch. Then Susanna says "Come here, Rhodry! Are you a deaf puppy?" I am not a deaf puppy, I am busy!

Two of the people are people puppies. One day they made a big bang. I did not like that! I scratch scratch scratched on the door and Susanna let me in. "I knew you would want to come in," she said. "I heard something go POP and you do not like loud noises." She is right! Another day they made more noises. I scratch scratched but Susanna did not come. I scratch scratched louder. She said "I'm coming, Rhodry!" and ran down the stairs and let me come in.

Today the sun was very warm so I crawled under the steps. It is dark and cool in the dirt. But the people puppies came and I could not sleep. I came out and went scratch scratch scratch on the door. Susanna said "I bet you will be glad when those kids go home." She is right! I bet Maddie will be glad too.

A little people puppy came to the barn today. She did not make loud noises and I was not trying to sleep. I like that people puppy! Maybe she will come back.

Your friend,

Rhodry
