Animals Unplugged?

OK, finally caught my breath.  Buddy and Perky have done it again.  I am lounging watching Big Bang Theory and surfing for a photography meet up group with Perky dozing on my leg.  Buddy suddenly comes up and pokes Perky with his nose.  Nothing.  Looks at me, pokes Perky again.  She growls and gives a half hearted hiss, but just lies there.  Buddy looks at me, then walks away slowly with his tail drooping.  I am debating about whether I should go find a toy for him when he comes trotting back into the room with one of his long unstuffed toys hanging out of his mouth.  He brings it over and I move the computer so he can give it to me, but no, he goes straight to Perky and drops it on her head.  If looks could kill, I would be burying the dog.  Perky stares at him for a moment through the one eye not covered by the dog toy and then slowly turns to glare at me.  I think my giggles annoyed her a bit.  She slowly gets up, climbs up my leg growling softly and ignoring the dog.  What had me rolling on the couch with laughter?  The toy slid down her back and got caught on her tail so she was slowly dragging it behind her as she walked, which Buddy believed meant she was willing to play.  A couple of bounces and snaps at the trailing toy, and as he tugged it free Perky climbs up the rest of the way (yes, she used claws, I was laughing too hard to care) and jumps to the back of the couch to sit twitching her tail so it hits me in the face every so often.  Poor Buddy just stood there his toy drooping out of his mouth while I tried to type thru the laughter.  He just ran out onto the back porch to harass Millie and Essa.  I really do love these animals!
