The lost Bow

Jake, Midge and Booker-T ran into the park and hurried to the pond where they found Snappy sitting on a big rock near the edge of the pond.

“Hey there Snappy,” said Midge. “What are you doing?”

“I am relaxing here on the rock enjoying the cool morning breeze,” smiled Snappy. “What are you doing this morning?”

“We came to play with you in the water,” said Jake.

“Oh, and Midge, you have pretty bows on your head,” said Snappy. “You look pretty with them. You don't want to get them wet.”

Booker-T and the Groomers

“Hey Midge!” called Booker-T. “Wow, you are looking really nice this morning with your pretty pink bows.”

“Hi Booker-T and hi Jake,” said Midge as she pranced around the front porch showing off her pretty pink bows. “You like them?”

“They are nice,” said Jake. “You look really pretty. Can you play in the park this morning with your pink bows on?”

Midge is not at Home

“Hello Midge!” called Booker-T as he hurried up the steps to her front porch. “Where are you?”

Midge didn't answer and Booker-T banged on the door with his paw and called again,”Midge! Where are you?”

Still there wasn't an answer from Midge. He leaped off the porch and ran around to the back yard and looked all around and saw no one. He ran to the doggie door and pushed on it to look inside, but the door wouldn't open. He pushed harder but still the door wouldn't open. He jumped onto the box that sat beneath the back window and put his little face against the glass and tried to see inside. The curtains were closed and he could not see anything.

Being Safe

“Hey Jake!” called Booker-T as he hurried up the sidewalk to the front porch. “Are you there?”

Jake sat up and saw Booker-T climbing the steps. “I'm here Booker-T. You are awake early today.”

“Yes, lot earlier than usual,” said Booker-T.

“What is going on that you are up so early?” asked Jake. “Midge hasn't even gotten here yet.”

The Big Dog Show

“Hey guys!” said Midge. “Look over there. All the dogs are going into the tent for the dog show.”

“Wow, there are a lot of dogs!” said Susie. “Are you sure you want to go over there Booker-T?”

“Sure,” said Booker-T. “We will be okay. The owners of the dogs won't let them run loose so we are okay.”

“Are you positive we will be okay?” asked Susie.

Midge and The Dog Show

“Hi Midge,” said Jake as he looked up to see her walking up the sidewalk to the porch.

“Hey Jake!” called Midge as she started up the steps to the porch. “What are you doing?”

“Not a thing,” answered Jake. “Just finished breakfast and was laying here in the cool shade waiting for you and Booker-T.”

“What do you want to do today?” asked Midge. “I know there is a big dog show this afternoon at the park.”

“Do you want to check it out?” asked Jake. “I'm sure Booker-T won't mind too much if we go see what kind of dogs are there.”

Booker-T is Late

“Hello Jake!” called Midge as she saundered through the gate and up the sidewalk to the porch. “What are you doing?”

“Hi Midge,” answered Jake as he sat up from his morning nap. “I was just taking a nice nap in the shade here and enjoying the cool breeze blowing.”

“A nap?” asked Midge. “Why do you need a nap? You just woke up from the night about an hour ago.”

“How do you know I woke up an hour ago?” asked Jake. “Maybe I was up earlier than that.”
