Friday, March 4th, 2005Towel Dreams
Some things come from our childhood and stay with us all our lives. That’s how Argus feels about his towel. As a puppy, Kip tucked a warm towel into his crate to comfort him; after baths Kip wrapped Argus up in a big, fluffy bath towel.
To this day, Argus becomes animated and excited at the sight of a towel. He has one of his own, of course. He likes to wrap it around a favorite toy, in essence making an individualized soft toy that he clamps between his paws and chews on. He rolls onto his back, holding the towel toy between big feet and waving it in the air while he grunts and growls in a mock battle. When the battle is done, he lumps the towel beneath his head and slips into a satisfied sleep.
