Chapter six
Love Breathers can have a strange effect on people.
The two adults that followed little June looked stunned and amused at the same time.
"Wow, how did all these animals get into our house?" Dad asked and immediately went to check on the alarm.
"humph, in looks like somebody disarmed it"
"Daddy, these are smart pets" said June,
If Barbara and Redy Bedy let them in that means they are special" she added.
Dad and Mom looked at their visitors, and almost at once said: "where is Barbara?"
AT that moment Barbara and Z appeared at the kitchen door
"I told you our girls were looking for their partners", June said in a matter of fact sort of way.
Honey, these don't look like partners to our Barbara and Redy Bedy? Said the mom and a surprised tone. These are stray!
But she could not take her eyes off of Z and Barbara, it was obvious they were in love.
Mom, said June, if you don't let these visitors stay Barbara will leave us."
The child was ready to cry.
Top Pup walked over to Mom and looked up at her from her feet.
Oh, the little one is soooo cute, said June. He could sleep in bed with me and Redy Bedy."
And this is where it all began.
The beginning of the big adventure as observed and told by our little special friend Top-Pup.
Because it was at this junction in time, with too many pets in one house and some stunned owners standing at the door way, that something became clear to Top-Pup
Love Breathers' need for love had to have a strong connection with people.
People love their pets, people love to love, and Pets love people and love to be loved by them. And before the thought finished forming in his little head he knew that Barbara and Z were gone, as was D dog who simply ran out the front open door as soon as his instincts told him that Z and Barbara were leaving through the window in the other side of the house.
That evening as the TV was blasting the news in the living room a small segment about an animal rescue shelter came on. It described a strange disappearance of three dogs from a rescue shelter in a posh area of town. The animals disappearance was shrouded in mystery as it seemed that none of the keys in the possession of the owner were missing and yet three cages had been opened and the dogs managed to get out of the front gate as well. A puzzled owner was interviewed. He said The dogs were good dogs awaiting adoption, a picture of Top - Pup from when he was brought in immediately after being rescued was show appeared.
Dad and Mom looked at each other and June sounded a yelp of recognition.
In the living room with the family was Redy Bedy and Top Pup only.
Stick had also disappeared that afternoon. The owners barely got a glimpse of near their majestic cat when they entered their home as Stick was not the sort of cat to stick around people no pun intended.
June's face was still swollen from crying hard after it became clear that Barbara had already left.
Indeed, it was clear even to the family that Barbara was not the sort of dog that would stay for long. And Dad tried to warn June when they had gone to the rescue that Barbara must be lost to someone who might come claiming her one day.
But Barbara was such a beautiful Poodle that no dog lover could resist the temptation to own her once they laid eyes on her, especially at a Rescue shelter where she stuck out so much and seemed so out of place.
But it was the spirit of Bite-Me, not Barbara that made her beauty noticeable anywhere.
Dad and June looked at the pets sitting to the right of the TV sofa on a huge pillow which was there especially for them. "Well," said Dad "you were right June,
whatever was going on here with all these pets coming in here this afternoon looks like no coincidence. Apparently our house was only a stop in some bigger adventure their on. Maybe Barbara was part of their lives before she came to us."
"And what are we going to do about this little one?" said Mom,
"We'll have to take him back to the shelter on Monday and let them know that we have him. and that we saw the other dogs too."
Redy Bedy and Top-Pup had struck and understanding at first hello, Rey Bedy being twice his size gazed down at him with her large open features gave Top Pup a sense of security he couldn't exactly put a finger on.
But things were complicated now that his picture appeared on TV it looked like it wasn't going to be any kind of quiet adoption option for him anyway.
As much as he liked this home and the very special little June, he had a feeling that his adventures were only just beginning.
And indeed at that moment he received a txt Redy Bedy sensed the electric current in his body ans watched him read it.
It was from Z,
