Hello. I'm Lyric, sister of Lily, and nick-named "Chief of Police" in my den. That's because I'm THE ENFORCER (albeit self-appointed) of all the rules and regulations that our pack operates under. If anyone gets out of line, it's up to me to use my paws, teeth or whatever else I decide is appropriate to put 'em back in their place.
As an example,
there's that fight my sister Lily mentioned in the post titled "Lily's Journal" immediately below this one. The reason I had jumped up to correct Deckie, another Sheltie and member of our pack, was because he gets so damned bossy at times! I simply had to take him down a peg or two. Lily jumped in & bit him on the ear, but what the heck could I do at that point? I had my paws full trying to take care of him; he's one tough little bastard, let me tell you!
Also, don't get offended that I erased the "age" and "weight" categories next to the bullets up above. After all, that's my business & none of anyone elses's. Got a problem with that?
But don't think I'm too irrascible. I love to roll on my back & let the human scratch my belly. I also love a good laugh. I do that when I'm told to move faster or am corrected about something I've done around the house. And by the way, don't even
think of trying to push or shove me out of your way. If you ask me I'll move. But if you push me I have a tendency to show my teeth. I simply
hate to be forced to do something.
I have the same problem with getting to write my thoughts on the computer as Lily does, also
mentioned in the post below this one. The humans are always hogging access to the Internet & if I try to get on line late at night they'll yell at me for having the keyboard make too much noise! They can be such whimps at times. It's too bad they have to get up so early to feed me & the other dogs.
I can't wait until I hold elections and am appointed as Mayor. I'll fix everybody then!
