Unphotographable*

I walk into the kitchen and see the terrier leaning casually against the sofa.

He looks shifty. If a Jack Russell's mouth could carry a tune he'd be whistling 'nonchalantly'.

As appealing as his face is, it does not sufficiently distract from the rest of his body.

I do a double take and see that he is wearing a green tea towel like a cape.

He looks like a small, furry James Brown, waiting to be helped off stage.

He hates being laughed at. He hates being caught red-pawed, at the scene of the crime.

I snigger into an empty coffee cup as he trots to his bed, tea towel trailing behind him like a bridal train.

Ha! That's a great image--in my head. My girls tie towels to Rube's collar and call him Krypto. We are partial to caped canines.
