 |  |  |  | This morning Treader asked to be let out. I let him out, but as soon as he was outside he stared at me. I let him back in. He still wanted out, but I ignored him. Later on I let him out and he just stared at me after being let out again. I figured that he never does that unless he wants me to follow him (he did it one time before when I left one of his toys outside and out of reach), so I went outside with him. He led me to the end of the porch and showed me a little hole in to the ground. An insect (or some sort of "bug") came out. It was a rusty-red color and it was flying, but that was all that I could tell about it. Treader tried to catch it and it flew away. Could it have been a wasp? Why did Treader think it was important enough to show me? Maybe it stung him and he was trying to warn me that it could sting me too or something like that. Or maybe he wanted me to help him catch it. But I doubt that the latter is true, because after he showed me that he wanted back in. The bug was buzzing around the porch later on and Treader again tried to catch it.
Whatever Treader's reason fro showing it to me, I think that he is even smarter than I thought. I mean, my other dog Cookie is smart too but she never does stuff like what Treader did today. Well, when people were working on the roof several years ago Cookie did, but she hasn't done it since.Edited by author Fri Jul 11, '08 3:27pm PST
