First Mocha, Now Diamond

This blog is the continuing saga of the neighbors' pets. It's a new chapter following the blog on Mocha the cat. This time it is Diamond, the dog. He belongs to Natalie, the other neighbor.

Diamond is a latecomer to Natalie's Animal Shelter (Natalie and son have 5 dogs, 2 cats, 1 turtle and... who knows what else). Being the low dog on the totem pole, Diamond works hard to earn his Kibbles. He barks at anyone and any noise to demonstrate to the chatelaine his understanding of the territorial imperative. The other canines, I am sure, have called him a "silly boy" for making all the fuzz. You see, those other dogs hardly ever bark, except in the event of hearing the wailing siren in the distance. Only then does one hear the poorest imitation of the dog chorus from The Lady and the Tramp.

I shall devise a plan to put Diamond through L'Envoi's Canine Obedience School, covertly, of course. Shhhhhhh.
