Thor PawWord Story
Our story begins not long after the morning sun had saved the Pup ‘n’ Go Taco Joint from the long lonely night, and as was typical in Spencerville, it was another gloriously perfect day. The ghost of a bacon smell still wafted from the bustling joint, a reminder of last night’s famed ‘Bark at the Moon’ feast. It was enough to stir up the epicurean spirits of one well-loved local resident…
“Thor! Come on, we’ve got to sink our teeth into some action. The town ain’t gonna protect itself!” called Loki, hovering by the Doughnut Dog Park entrance, tail wagging with anticipation.
The rotund figure of Thor, however, was a stationary contrast to Loki’s spry form. He was enjoying a late morning snooze, a loud symphony of snores burbling from his slumbering form. Decked in his Spencerville PD blues, all shiny gold badge and wrinkled uniform, he made a peculiar picture: a detective apparently ablaze with…not a whole lot!
“But first…could use a treat…” Thor muttered to himself, eyes still closed. Awaking with a grunt, the determined English Bulldog braced himself, shaking off remnants of a dream that involved chased naughty cats, and with one last wistful sniff directed towards whatever delicious fancies Pup ‘n’ Go had prepared for the day, he sauntered towards Loki.
Gunner, hearing the familiar sounds of his best friend, beamed. “There’s hope for the day yet!” he chuckled, busy collating reports from the previous night’s high jinks at Chow Down Chow Chow’s All-You-Can-Eat wing night. “Thor, reports on your desk, Chief. Sadly, no bacon involved.”
With a subtle air of knowing disapproval of the sad fact that his work was not layered with bacon, Thor padded over to his desk, plopping down and promptly dismissing a carrot stick left there presumably as a piece-of-carrot offering from a concerned citizen.
And so, a day in the life of Spencerville’s finest, Detective Thor and his tireless team unfolded; intrigues were tackled and shenanigans sniffed out. This was their town, their people and their responsibility. Their love of Spencerville couldn’t be challenged, not even by an absolute disdain for vegetables or the soul-crushing sound of a vacuum cleaner.
Times were good in Spencerville, tales of fun and delight were many. Heroic pets worked ceaselessly to keep it so, with stories to be told, legends to be made, and, of course, naps to be had. Filled with local lore and camaraderie, the perfect town was always an adventure with their finest cop, the one and only Thor, on the beat. Ah yes, a day in the life of Spencerville was ever full of heart, humour, and a whole lot of pet hair.
Hey Mom, greetings from sunny Spencerville! Met Loki for breakfast at Pup ‘n’ Go; fell asleep in uniform (again). Epic morning naps give crazy cat chase dreams. Woke to bacon aroma, zero actual bacon. Gunner on reports duty, totally skimped on the pork. Today’s antic: carrot stick on my desk – left untouched. Love this town, ignoring veggies and evil vacuum sounds. Keep it dog-paw-litically correct. Loki sends tail wags. PS: Found more pet hair on my burger than the grill. Pawsome day! Sniffs & Licks, Thorcito.
