At first I thought my human had brought home a new friend. I was excited to greet them and barked most excitedly. I wagged my tail so much I felt like it was going to fly off like when my human throws a stick for me to catch.

My human took the friend down the stairs and I wanted to follow but my human closed the door on me and called me a good boy. I was confused but sat and waited patiently for my human and the friend.

After what felt like eternity and my eyes were getting sleepy my human returned through the door and patted me on the head. But they were alone and I was confused so I tilted my head.

My human fell asleep on the sofa and I could smell something strange so I went to investigate with my nose.

My nose led me to the door and I realised it was partly open so I pushed it open with my nose and followed it down the stairs.

The smell led me to a blanket and I nudged it with my nose and saw the friend laying there. I was confused why they were sleeping covered in red water and I nudged them to wake them up.

When they didn’t wake up I barked and I barked and my human came running down the stairs. My human was angry at me and called me a bad dog. I was scared so I bit my human on the hand and ran away.

I started cowering in my bed and my human came back up. My human gave me a treat and apologised, but I could never look at my human the same way again.
