French Immersion

Barney has been coming to our new office the last little while, and much to everyone’s delight, he has made friends with two of our neighbours. A couple of nice ladies run a catering business next to us, and they have two French bulldogs in their office.

In the spirit of good neighbourly relations, I have taken Barney over to meet the two dogs a couple of times . One of them is a rather stout male who goes by the name of Allard. He has become a staunch defender of Barney when his younger companion gets a little too frisky for the wee chihuahua. Allard will stand between Barney and the rambunctious one to make sure Barney doesn’t get flattened in the commotion.

They like Barney so much that one day, the two of them escaped the confines of their office to come looking for Barney. My brother was slaving over a hot keyboard with the office door open, and he was surprised to see our neighbours (the human ones) come in looking for the two bulldogs. The dogs just wandered in like they owned the place, expecting to find their tiny neighbour waiting to greet them.

Unfortunately Barney and I were at the vet that day getting some booster shots, so the meeting never took place. Barney has his duties as Public Relations Director to fulfill, so he comes out on the road with PJ and I occasionally. He can’t work in the office all the time.
