Miracle Myx Meets Maddie

.
"I think you've made a new friend, Myx."

"Don't make any sudden moves, Dave."

"Maddie's just playful. She wouldn't hurt a fly," I said.

"Flies I'm not worried about--it's that slobbering tongue ...."

Myx was getting acquainted with Maddie, my friend Janee's dog. She was a black lab that was a bundle of kind energy. She would go "goonie"--run, roll, and prance happily--at the slightest provocation. Right now she was behaving nicely, but provocation was always just around the corner. And, a trouncing for MIRACLE MYX surely was in that same location.

"Just hold still, Myx--and keep your voice down," I said.

"You think Maddie can hear me?"

"You don't want to test it out, do you?"

"Good point," Myx whispered.

Miracle Myx Goes To The Dogs

"She's gonna bite me."

"She's not even looking your way," I said.

"I think she's growling."

"Myx, Queenie is being very nice to you. Look how she's sitting there--all tame and docile."

My brother's dog had just been running and jumping, circling and wagging--a dynamo. He had gotten her to sit and was just out of camera shot, trying to get her to stay for a few seconds.

Did I know for sure that she wouldn't gnaw on Myx, carry him around in her slobbering maw, or use him as a target urinal?

Nope ... but, I was willing to take that risk. After all--it wasn't me down there!

"Why are we doing this?"

"I want to show how you're good with animals, so the animal-loving readers will want to bring you home to their pets too," I said.

"Other than that making no sense whatsoever, it sounded good," Myx said.

"Hold still," I said as I snapped the pic.

"Don't worry about that," I thought I heard Myx mutter.
