Attention must be paid

Just sayin', The dogs 1 Minute

Dejah is upside down and seemingly asleep on the floor.

But when I say, “Oh, there’s that Dejah girl,” she wags her tail. Nothing else moves, just the tail.

After the wag subsides, I add, “what a good dog,” and the tail wags again.

Amused, I sit down to write this down so I remember the moment, and while I’m writing she rolls onto her side and sighs.

I think I may have missed a belly-rub opportunity.
