The Mournful Cry
Deep in the night, a mournful cry is lifted to the heavens. Is it a lonesome coyote, searching for a mate? Or perhaps a solitary wolf, finding the scent of a quickly fleeing rabbit and gearing up for a mighty chase? Or could it be a majestic hound detecting a fox nearby and alerting everyone that the hunt has begun? Who can know what goes on in the mind of a slumbering pup to cause him to lift his mournful cry in the wee hours of the morning…

So, Dante is howling in his sleep? Todd’s huskies used to do that.

It can be kind of eerie when it wakes you out of a dead sleep. It almost sounds like a ghost moaning from one of those old horror movies. Luckily (or unluckily, depending on your point of view), it did not wake me last night seeing as how I was already awake.

I might’ve shot the dog.
And I love dogs.
