I love that dog.

“Why were we at Sanderson?” I repeated. “Well, Waffles really had to go. You know him—­he bolts sometimes, and I can barely hang on to the leash. He took off for the bushes at Sanderson last night. Sometimes he just wants to, um, do his business there!” This was mostly true. Waffles does sprint to Sanderson sometimes, but he doesn't do his business just anywhere. He's partial to a certain bush in my backyard where he enjoys complete privacy, and if desperate during the workday, he'll make use of a grassy nook behind the store. He'd never sully the gorgeous lawns of Sanderson.

Waffles whined, then went over to his dog bed to lie down. He knew he had just been dissed.

Bootsie laughed, picked up her tote, and strode in her whale-­print sandals toward the door—­finally. She even acknowledged Waffles by nodding at him on the way out. “That dog's got good taste. I love that he likes to take a crap at Sanderson!”
