Feeling free,
I heard the tires squeal and door slam with a rat-a-tat-tat on the aluminum garage door, he arrived.
The pitter patter of paws I missed and when I asked where Hannah was he said, " AH, I have work today, yes on Saturday, so she is home." Siddhartha her brother scampered about sniffing high and low for her and instead of finding his sis stopped at Scott and collected love, hugs, kisses and snuggles. Sidd smiles for Scott barring teeth high and wide, just like all the other Campbell Clan. The chain saw was powered on and away he went making small pieces of the 50' Eucalyptus tree that snapped in half from a neighbors yard. In 20 minutes the job was complete and the back up crew of 1 arrived on time to help clip and trim the excess Eucalyptus twigs. The yard reeked of sweet, spicy sap that reminded me of Montana De Oro.
When the task was complete Scott rounded up his equipment and again turned to Sidd and asked for a smile. Up went his lips with white teeth blaring against his black skin and fur. Scott noticed something on one of Sidd's canines and gave me a scowl saying, "plaque, don't you know about dental care for dogs, it is very important." I said, "NO, that is not plaque, just the color of his tooth!" He applied very little pressure with his fingernail and a thin, flake of disgusting crud peeled from Sidd's tooth...... It was so nasty and I quickly realized, "ok, so he has some plaque." He continued to scrape and scrape and scrape some more.
Thank you Scott for chipping away at the scum- ness on his teeth.
Like dog son of a Mom human, like human Mom of a son dog-
Like dog son of a Mom human, like human Mom of a son dog-
I too have a scrapping appointment tomorrow and just hope the Dental Hygenist does not feel the queasy nastiness that I felt as I saw what loosened from Sidd's teeth.
It is always an interesting feeling to lay back, relax as my teeth are scrapped, brushed, picked, flossed and polished.
I use this time to meditate- They used to always ask if I would like the TV on and so I suppose that my aghast reaction led them to NEVER ask me again. I think they may have even purchased a new cover since my ungodly reaction to the contraption was so OVER the top.
So, for tomorrow I get to go to a place, recline, close my eyes, have happy thoughts, no thoughts, be centered, grateful and peace.
I also will work on keeping my hounds' choppers clean-
Thank you again Scott for the really cool experience !
I think a great flavor for toothpaste would be Eucalyptus- maybe I will take a few twigs with me to Dentist and see what they think!
Koalas love it!
