The Forest Guard
This really happened.
As I sit here on my couch with my laptop, my puppy is squeaking his toy, loudly and repeatedly. I truly hope that what is an otherwise annoying sound to many will be inspirational to me. One might think, “Oh! How adorable! A story about a puppy! Puppies are such handfuls! This should be good!” And they’d be right, they are handfuls and this could be a funny story about that. But this story isn’t about my new puppy. I’ve raised several puppies throughout my life who grew up to be wonderful dogs and I have many wonderful memories of life with them, but Nova and I just haven’t had time to make those yet. He’s just a cute puppy and very new to us. This story is about dogs though. About how fascinating it is to see how they work together, how they communicate through a silent language, and how terrifying they can be. As I said before, this is a true story.
