>They were underweight, scraggly, and skittish. Now,

>went consistently through the course, never messing

>dashed through the course, knocking one pole in his
>hurry. Susan patted them all and then looked outside.
>It was 8:00 and the sky was black with ominous storm

>the house, barking hyperly. She opened the door and
>went inside, just as the rain started to pour.
>1:00 AM
>Susan sighed and looked at the lightning outside her
>window. Lila & Sam were curled up on her bed next to
>her, shivering with fear. They hated thunderstorms.
>Moxie was laying on the other pillow. Dingo, Sparks,
>Mocha, Bandit, Jemma, Sandy, and Tornado were laying
>in various places on the bed. She sat for a while and
>then drifted off to sleep, thinking of her MANY, MANY
>dogs.
