When his hair is long and covers his eyes, and if he keeps his mouth shut, one is he coming or questions when he opens But going? his mouth, his white teeth are sufficient evidence to see which direction hes - taking. Looking at those teeth, one is convinced that he has two rows of teeth on the bottom The vet assured his masters that such was not the case. His teeth are crooked, they were told. Wow! Teeth that crooked should have braces. It was considered. But other factors taken under advisement, put the braces quesjaw. tion to rest. The puppy, Midnight, was supposed to be a healthy pure blood, with a price to match. He had been in the home for a short time, however, when he had to have surgery. Other health problems followed. So much so, in fact, that his masters wonder whether or not he was bred on a puppy farm. The care and treatment so often lacking in such places might well be the answer to some of the difficulties the little fellow faces. He has no way to make his masters aware of what his problems are, and he makes no complaint. But when a puppy, with a normally voracious appetite is not interested in food, not even treats, its a sure sign the puppy is not feeling up to par. Hes the only male in a three-dohousehold, and fancies himself the strong, macho type. It is truly a fantasy, but that matters little if it builds his ego. Midnight, as a little mistress calls him, is a typical teen tormentor, jealous one, at that. He playfully knaws at Ringys and Happy's necks, as he did at Puppys while she was alive. As dogs will, be coaxes them to play with him. Strangely enough, they seldom get upset at him. Usually, when they reach their limit, theyll walk off and leave him, rather than snap at him. Most dogs want a lot of ception, unless it is that he wants to be petted and loved even more than most puppies. He can become a real nuisance in his pleading for more petting. Trying, with his nose, to lift his benefactors hand that he might receive a few more pats. When hes being petted, he thinks Happy and Ringy should not interfere. But when either or both of those two are being petted, guess who wants in? Nor is he bashful about infringing on their time. Chickens and cows definitely have their pecking order so do puppies. Perhaps hierarchy would be more appropriate for the canine group at McGruffs. Puppies equate themselves with the humans with whom they live. In the order of - importance, Midnight places McGruff at the top. His Majesty Midnight places himself next in line, with Mrs. McGruff being way low on the totem pole, albeit a titch above Happy and Ringy. She loves him nonetheless. Mrs. McG., along with her Mr., looks forward to homecomings. They know Midnight will be waiting; standing eagerly on the porch, doing a fancy, fast, p with his front little those little At times feet. two-ste- ex- - At bedtime, Midnight will be totally relaxed in His bean bag usually on his back, and often with one or two legs cocked in the air in - complete relaxation.
