Junebug

This is why I like our dog Juniper Bug:

Right now there is a tornado warning and she's sitting on the porch with me watching the rain. She'll look out the window, look at me worried, whine, and then look up at the ceiling. Then she looks out the window again. She just figured out roofs!

This rainstorm is the most exciting thing in the world for her. She's sniffing the air, she's watching everything, all the noises are making her jump and look. This is what it would be like to be an animal. For one thing, people would be thinner if they were more like animals. They move around all the time.

I love this dog. Granted, she ate the first 18 pages of my copy of "Gone with the Wind." I don't know, maybe she found it offensive.
