hof PawWord Story
“Hey Dad, almost traded my fave toy for roast beef kebab at K9. Got laughed at instead, darn biscuits! Got ditched at the Playhouse too. Guess what, the squeaky chicken is back. π Pawnine-nine’s! ~Hof”
Being one’s self can be an exhausting endeavour, even here in our haven β Pawsburg. Especially when you’re a Bulldog named Hof, preoccupied with concocting daring plots to smuggle a roast beef kebab from the favourite restaurant in town, the K9 Kebabs. Don’t you mistake his fervent desire for thievery with malice though, he’s not a delinquent. This is mere gastronomy.
One sunny morning, following a deep slumber, Hof woke up from his usual resting spot on Western Husky Hill. Blotches of sunlight playfully dappled his sturdy body as he set about on his roast-beef-smuggling operation, tucking away his most cherished toy, the squeaky rubber chicken, into a safe hiding place on route.
“A roast beef kebab in exchange for a squeaky rubber chicken? I think not! We only deal with biscuits here at K9 Kebabs, Hof!” Chuckled the old Beagle at the counter, whose laughter resonated around the restaurant. A character as eccentric as the town itself, everyone within earshot turned their attention to the loveable Hof and laughed along.
Biscuits! It’s always the biscuits, isnβt it? Something that seems to be the culinary delight of every canine inhabitant of Pawsburg, except Hof. This was the one who bowed down to the mighty roast beef; had no taste for those crusty, bone-shaped things.
However, as is often the case in life, unscathed victory seldom lies in the path of a roast-beef-loving Bulldog with an allergy to biscuit deals. Between his distaste to biscuits and dislike for water – oh the Pawsburg community pool was the bane of his existence – he was seen by many a comical figure, a knight who was undeterred in his obsessive quests.
On a rather uneventful Tuesday, Hof was found brooding by the entrance of The Pooch Playhouse, his furrowed brows creating deep waves on his jowly face.
βI’ve been double-crossed!β he rumbled, the dramatics of being deprived singlehandedly of his favourite food was unravelling. The other dogs in his close-knit community, the diverse slate of Boxers to Beagles, roared in innocent jest.
In the end, the tale unfurled itself in the heart of Pawsburg at Fawn Cream Maltese Meadow, decorated endlessly with amusing endeavours and timeless comradery. Even though Hof’s roof-beef smuggling operation didn’t bear fruit, he was soon in high spirits, playing with his friends, the squeaky rubber chicken back in his possession.
So it goes, a day in the life of Hof, an affable Bulldog, whose missions and misadventures make Pawsburg the delightful haven it is; all under the watchful and amused gaze of the dog-police officers of our Pet-Nine-Nine.
The End.
