    Edith, what you heard was Scooter biting off your left leg.

    Scooter wanted to wear the star tiara.

    I have not seen Scooter as a brown dog in a long time, I think this must be Rusty. In any event, what a surprise to see him in “bad dog” posture! He must have a special relationship with Edith, or he wouldn’t give a hoot.

    But…but…he’s got the dingle balls….and the spoilers on the back to keep his rear end from lifting up when he’s going soooo fast. He’s got four on the floor. Man, I don’t know what he’s got to complain about!

    Listen up people, Wanda Fertington is not going to play the Easter Egg Fairy in the Ballard Easter and Fish gutting Festival Parade!

    I don’t care if she whines and sniveles, but her dog bites when he is in a bad mood, and we lost 36 bunny tails last year alone.

    Happy didn’t recover for a fortnight!

    This is a little hard to piece together….

    Most of you are talking about Edith… so she must be the woman in the picture….

    Somebody said Scooter bit her leg off but I don’t think he would do that.

     

    The dog is this picture, according to Dennis, is Rusty….

    which is closer, so maybe it is…. but whoever he is….

    he doesn’t really look like a leg-biter-offer either.

    A little out-of-sorts, yes…. but not bloodthirsty.

     

    Speaking of which… I don’t see any… you know… blood…

    So it must have happened quite a while ago…

    Maybe that’s why Rose is talking about Wanda Fertington and her dog.

    Cos yeah, she owns Ajax.

     

    Ajax bites…. and he is indeed already banned from most Ballard County functions and should be banned from the rest.

    Maybe he bit Edith’s leg…. but probably not off, since he’s a chihuahua mix.

    Possibly complications ensued after her Uber ambulance ride.

     

    I tell everybody I don’t trust the Ballard and Pitt Street Trauma and Taxidermy Center, especially since they added the Used Motorcycle Parts in the first floor pharmacy.

    Things can get mixed up.

    But does Edith listen?

    A friend had a 130lb Rott that didn’t like to “down”.

    He would do it, veeeerrrryyy slowly and grumble all the way down.

    Phunniest danged thing you ever saw. She was about 5’1" and 100lbs soaking wet with rocks in her pockets.

    Scooter, or Rusty, whichever it is, isn’t looking down because he is bad- he is looking down at her one foot and wondering where the other leg is, just as we all are.
