Canyon Shadows
“Part of his inattention came from her presence alone. He also kept wondering if she realized how much he’d revealed when he’d explained why he was no longer a cowboy. He certainly hadn’t expected to get into the realities of that hard decision, and it was now too late to take it back.
The dogs remained on task as long as she had their attention. Even with her body close to his and distracting him, he admired both her easy way with the take-no-prisoners pair and their enthusiasm for their roles....
The dogs obviously had a clear idea of their responsibilities and took them seriously. They understood that animals, birds, and rodents weren’t worthy of a warning bark while humans where and when they didn’t belong were fair game.

If it was him facing those raised hackles and exposed fangs, he’d be throwing up his hands and begging someone, anyone, to haul the dogs away.MoreLess
