It always amazes me how Olive (the workshop Labrador) seems
to know who has just entered the workshop without seeing them. She is
particularly good at knowing the difference between the ‘I’ve come to read the
meter’ opening door and the ‘just popping in to see what you’ve got at the
workshop’ opening door.
She was very good at spotting the ‘dodgy geezer trying to
sell me dodgy CDs’ opening door sound. In fact, it was more a case of opening
door sound, charge, woof woof, growl, sound of door closing. Me going to see
what the fuss was. Sound of me telling dodgy geezer to go away. Sound of
patting Olive on the head – ‘Good girl’.
When she gets older I may bring her to the shop and train
her to tell the difference between the ‘I’m going to buy something’ shop bell
and the ‘I’m going to prod everything and say I could get it cheaper at the car
bootie’ shop bell.
Woof!
