The Small World of Little Toot

Lil’ Toot here. Great-Cousin Waldo was quite the Shepherd. He prided Himself on Being the Best in His Field. He never lost a Sheep on His watch, often returning to gather up Someone wandering about.

One day, She took matters into her Own Paws and learned how to Feed Herself. Saved Her Mistress some meal prep Time. So thoughtful. Living unstuck. I have longingly…
