Heya! Desi the Maltipoo detective here 😄 Had quite the day sniffing out Cream Maltese Meadow’s missing emerald collar, which lead me over to the strange absence of Molly the Bichon Frisé. Long story short? Found Molly tangled with the collar in White Westie Woods. Collar’s back safe with a grateful Molly; all’s well in Pawsburg. Time for a victory nap!

The devilish moon cut a bloody arc across the South Pawsburg sky last night; something was about to unfold in the realm of fur and paws. I find myself, Desi, Pawsburg’s very own hound-and-a-half, ricocheting off the raw edges of my anticipation. Suddenly, an uncanny chill slices through the town – Cream Maltese Meadow is missing its prize emerald dog collar… and damn it, it’s up to me to sniff it out.

As the day breaks, I nod to my reflection in Labradoodle Lake’s mirror-like surface, tapping into this Maltipoo’s inner Holmes, I ponder the mystery. Who could have taken it without a trace? The usual suspects – the squirrels. Devilish creatures, they are. Stashing shiny trinkets in their lairs. But no, even they can’t outsmart my wits.

Next stop: Fishy Bites, a crime scene most delicious. My heart jumps with delight at the thought of pilfered chicken treats, while my spleen recoils from the nightmare of the dreaded broccoli, a culinary ghost haunting my otherwise perfect world. I scour the restaurant, nose to floor, an aria of scents swirling around me. But the collar, remains elusive.

White Westie Woods – that’s where the mystery unravels. It’s always the quiet places that harbor the loudest secrets. Molly, the feisty Bichon Frisé is strangely absent. Curious. Just as I turn to leave, a glint catches my beady eyes – my squeaky ball!

I sprint, as any Maltipoo would upon spotting their cherished plaything, my heart beating in rhythm with each squeak. But it’s not just a squeak. It’s a despairing call for help, a cry echoing from within its rubber heart. What cruel twist of fate! Beneath the ruffled green foliage, the squeaky ball uncovers Molly and lo and behold – the emerald collar!

Oh, Molly, coveting the sparkling jewel did you get tangled up? As I free her, she whimpers an apology laced with gratitude. Returning to the bustling Pawsburg, a hero and master sleuth, my tail dictating the dance of victory and the collar safely returned to Cream Maltese Meadow.

As the sun sets, I sneak into the Groom Room, the dread of baths forgotten by the sweet nectar of victory. Pawsburg sleeps easy tonight. Just your average day in the life of Maltipoo detective, Desi – Alert, charismatic, and damned good at her doggone job.

The End.
