Walking the poop deck with Merlin, canine cuteness personified
, a big yellow Lab. How hard could it be to keep an eye on a tiny, four-legged mop?“Harder than you’d think,” I thought to myself as I awkwardly lifted my bare foot into the tiny powder room sink and turned on the faucet.
And yet Merlin knows not to do it when we’re looking. This summer has been like one of Sherlock Holmes’s less-popular detective stories: “The Case of the Stealth Poop.” There’s no poop when we go to bed. There’s no poop when we let him out in the morning. But in the 30 seconds it takes to go out front to get the newspaper from the driveway? Poop!
Archie and Merlin should be better in a few days. We’ve been taking it easy with them, giving them a cough suppressant, running a humidifier and going on shorter walks.It was on just such a walk — early in the morning, before it got too hot — that we had our next dog drama. Merlin suddenly emitted a high-pitched yelp, then flipped on his back and started gnawing on a paw.
