”Beau! Do you like that name?” came the awaited reply of Aza.
The dog barked happily and answered, “Yes! Yes! Beau likes Beau! Beau has name! Like Aza! Now we both have name!” His pink tongue came lolling out of his mouth and he panted and wagged his tail. Then he noticed it wagging out of the corner of his eye. It looked like it would taste good. He began the classic move of chasing his own tail around and around in circles, snapping at it every once in a while, trying to catch it in his mouth. Eventually the hard work paid off and he flopped over on the ground, munching happily on the fur on his tail.
He didn’t bite hard enough for it to hurt, just sort of softly kept the thing in his mouth for a while, bright eyes showing delight at having caught his “prey.” “Look, look!” he called to Aza, intent on showing off. But the second he opened his mouth to say it, his tail went flopping to the ground. He let out a whimper. “What happen? Beau had tail then not…” His brows went down in confusion, and then he sort of shrugged. “Oh well!” Behind him, his now slobbery tail thumped happily on the ground.
