The Bark and the Time Bow-Wow: A Bull Terrier’s Tail of Time-Travel and Setting Pawsburg’s Pawfect Pedigree: A Ollie PawWord Story
Hey there, π
Quick pupdate from your fav fur-chrononaut, Ollie! πΎπ Just zipped back from primping Pawsburg’s past into the posh pooch paradise we pawsitively adore today! Bichon Blvd? Spruced. Weimaraner Woods? Wooftastic. Now, as I nap, my tail wags tales of time-traveling triumphs. Bet your biscuits you’ll be sniffing my handi-pawed legacy! π¦΄β¨
Stay pawesome,
Egghead Ollie πΆπ©
In the fabulous borough of Pawsburg, where the hydrants stream not water but vintage aromas, I made my home, or, dare I say, the center from which my exploits unwound. Ollie, that’s me, a Bull Terrier musing through the dog days with an egghead that might just crack open tales of tomorrow and yesterdays licked clean.
One autumn twilight, as the stars winked in agreement above Weimaraner Woods, a curious contraption, a veritable doghouse-sized tardis, tumbled upon the leaf-strewn path. I sniffed β adventure carried a scent like no other, tinged with the tang of time.
Let’s waddle through this tale quickly, for brevity is the soul of wit, or so that short-fused cat ‘Hamlet’ insisted. A flick of the paw, a leap into the abyss, and there I stood, dapper as a doggie in a time bow-wow, gazing upon a Pawsburg of the past. Yet, all was not as fetching as usual.
See, this Pawsburg had ‘not yet’ to its name β not yet carved out Bichon Boulevard, nor had Spaniel Springs gurgled to life. The very idea set one’s tail to twitching; a town bereft of Sniffer’s Sandwiches is enough to send shivers through any upstanding cur.
I shook off the discombobulation, my keen eyes squinting through the mist of history. A clip-clop here, a rustle there β ancestors of my chums, the Dachshund, the Greyhound, the Rottweiler, they scampered with a less refined etiquette than we modern canines possess. Yet the spark of recognition? It fizzled just beneath my fur.
“Hello, forepaws and patriarchs,” I barked with the gusto of a host welcoming guests to Setter’s Steakhouse. “I come from a Pawsburg you’ve yet to dream of!”
One can assume the befuddled looks of those ancient pups. Time-traveling tales are not so easily digested like the choicest bits from Snout Snacks. But here’s the rub; I quickly found my pawing.
“I’ve come to ensure the pedigree of Pawsburg’s splendor!” I professed. “For tomorrow’s tales need setting today, and it seems you folks are the setters of it all.”
Turns out, yesteryear’s mutts had mettle. With a dash of guidance, Bichon Boulevard sprouted, trees first, grooming parlors later. Weimaraner Woods? A mere nudge, and trees bowed to the future’s silent plea. And Spaniel Springs? Let’s just say, I lent my dewlaps to the endeavor.
Adventures, you see, are twofold; both in the living and the shaping. And there’s nothing quite as invigorating as planting seeds for legend to grow.
Now, prancing back to my own epoch via the tardis (a doggy door through the fabric of space, no less), it came to me β an authorial flourish, if I may. The past, while quaint, could use some Bull Terrier spirit, a zest of tomorrow, today, and every fetch in between.
So I did what any self-respecting time-traveling pet would; I buried a squeaky toy, the paragon of my heart’s desires, beneath the soon-to-be Pawfect Training Center. For history may be written by the victors, but it’s shaped by the toys they leave behind.
And now, as I rest my head on the Dogonian pillow of the present, I wonder if my bones, my chew toys, my very bull-headed zest for life’s embroidery, has stitched the grand tapestry that is modern Pawsburg.
One can only hope, as I whisper my adventures to a human who hears in tail wags and snuggles what the stars already know β that time travel, for a dog, is just a nap away.
The End.
