about a dog.

I made a last minute trip to PetsMart to buy a few things for her in her new home; a new bed; some rawhide bones; a new collar tag with Jason's cell phone number on it. I put these things on the dining room table and spent half an hour in the back yard with Subi and their dog Baxter throwing the ball around and watching as she ate grass and panted. I looked threw the window to the backyard as I left; making sure she wasn't worried and looking for me. She was laid out on the grass chewing on her rawhide bone. She didn't look concerned. I felt reassured. I locked the front door and drove on toward the coast.
