The other day I was minding my own business in the yard. When Ajax suddenly leaps up and shoots across the lawn like a rocket! Boom! just like that he's got a squirrel in his mouth. And yes it looks dead. The look in his eye says to me " Cool huh, Tommy? What should I do with it now?" So I let him know he should take it inside and show it to the humans. They'll be proud of you. "OK" he says. And off he trots. Well, I gotta see this! I follow him in and he takes it straight to Da. But Da is staring at one of the computer boxes. Ajax just sits there for a few minutes and Da reaches down without looking and pats him on the head. So Ajax takes the thing to mom who is in the living room with Moma Aunt Becca our friend from across the neighborhood. Well they just keep on talking and there's Ajax standing there with a dead thing hanging out all over! So Ajax walks on by them to go back outside. Just as he's passing Mom she screams! " What the...?! Ajax!" Well Ajax flips! He thought he was doing something good and he gets this kind of response. He runs outside followed by Da, Mom and Moma Aunt Becca. They all surround him and he doesn't know what to do. Da tells him to "Drop!" and puts it in a bag. What the heck was that all about Ajax asks me later. " I dunno" I says.
