Carol Perkins: Bella and Honey Previous column: Home self is the truest self By Carol Perkins Bella and Honey belong to my hairdresser, and every week I can't wait to play with them. Bella, the smaller of the two dogs, and the older, is not one to play readily. She dominates her space and decides when and if she is going to jump on my feet as I sit in the styling chair, or merely barks while I'm having my hair shampooed. Her most dramatic barking is directed toward the squirrels running across the driveway as she imagines breaking through the glass door to attack one of them. She isn't much larger than the biggest of the squirrels but doesn't seem to know it. Honey is the younger of the two, at only five or six months, and the most accessible, jumping in my lap as soon as I sit down and climbing around my neck the way my Maltese once did. She is a little larger than a Maltese is, and has much longer white and golden hair. When Honey arrived, Bella pouted for a little while until she established dominance over Honey. Watching them interact is a treat. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2019-03-28 04:25:54 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Carol Perkins
