First day of spring and Annabelle, our rescued Great Dane pup (18 months), is waiting for some clear weather so she can take a walk. She paces then stares out the window, paces then stares out the window, all weekend, just waiting for the sky to clear.
And finally…
Drip, drip, drip, drip, drriiiiip
Ahhhhhh!
Eagerly she rushes to the door, looks at us, taps her foot, back to the window to check that the rain really has stopped then back to the door. Tap, tap, tap.
We are so well trained.
Click goes her leash, whoosh and bang goes the door.
Clickety, clickety, splish, splash!
Sniff, sniff, sniff.
Clickety, clickety, splish, splash!
We walk quickly around the neighborhood and happen upon the empty tennis courts (Sshhhhh, I know we are not supposed to play in there but no one is using them on this drippy Sunday morning)
A ball! What luck!
Bounce, bounce,
Galumph, galumph, scruuunch, scruuuunch, scruuuuunch, PLOP
Step, step, step, sniff, step, step, step
Home.
ZZZzzzzzz.

Love the cadence of sounds. I love how excited my dog gets too when she knows she is about to go for a walk or drive with us.
Those dogs! Mine never cuts me a break as far as walks go!
I loved all the sounds you experienced! Now that is one big baby of a pup you have! Perfect play pen for a Great Dane, a tennis court.
This is such a fun piece, Love all the sounds and pacing. I used to do that with my pup in the tennis courts… the ZZZzzzzz at the end is a great resolution.
This was perfect. I could see and hear it all. Loved the way you recounted the walk through sounds.
