Water Play with Teka Toy

This morning after we went for walkies we discovered that the sprinklers were on in our back yard. Teka went running toward the sprinkler in the middle of the yard. She was running very FAST! She was having a very good time.



She has a good time with the sprinklers! First she gets all wet by running and running. Then she picks the best sprinkler of all to play with and concentrates her efforts on that ONE sprinkler head.

She puts her little feet on it it see if she can stop the water from coming out of the sprinkler. She digs underneath it to see if she can make it stop. When none of that works, she starts to drink and drink and drink to keep the water from getting away! She is a very little dog, and there is a lot of water coming out of the sprinklers.

She turns her little doggy head this way and that way! She thinks if she can just get a good bite of it, it will stop putting all that water on the ground.

I, Gus Dagger wft, try to tell her that she should not drink so much water. I try to tell her that she will be very sorry if she keeps drinking all that water. I tell her she will

have a tummy ache! And even in Arizona, she gets soooooo cold that she shivers and shivers. But does she listen to me? No, NO!

So I go up to the porch and get my feet dried so I can go in and have breakfast. Muzzer has to chase Teka with a towel to get her dried off. That is pretty funny.

Then muzzer wraps Teka in another towel and takes her in to Dad to get her warm. That is REALLY funny.

What is not funny is that Teka has so much water in her tummy that she cannot help herself. She pees on the floors. Not one time, not two times, not three times, but four times.

Muzzer does not think that is funny AT ALL. But she is the one who let Teka play in the sprinklers. Teka is not at all impressed. She goes into her crate and takes a nap.

I, Gussie, go to work.

Teka clearly knows how scarce water is in the desert, and she is drinking it so it doesn't get wasted.

Oh, that wild puppy hilarity. Pappy is too startled by sprinklers to derive such enjoyment.
