There Make Be Snakes

Barley, a dog, sleeps nose-to-nose with a plush snake dog toy.

By virtue of their shape, some dog toys sort of get bullied out to the edges of the room more rapidly than others, and although Barley like this snake toy well enough, it keeps ending up under tables and such. Thing is, Barley also gets herself under furniture more often than you might suspect, whether it be due to fireworks, or thunder, or people stomping around upstairs, or the sound of my desktop restarting (which must be making some sort of ultrasonic noise because she acts like she’s been jumpscared every time it happens). So I was pleased to see that she and the snake had a reunion during one of her recent taking-shelter-from-scary-noise naps.
