An unusual evening task
A cold breeze cut through the night as I put Jake in the car to take him to a friend’s house, wishing him a good time and a good time before seeing him disappear in a hurry; meanwhile, John had already settled down at home to watch a movie. The journey went smoothly, but a strange feeling kept coming over me and, after leaving Jake safely, I returned home, hoping that Max’s restless behavior was just a fluke.

Max’s restless step
Back at home, I opened the door to find Max pacing the hallway, ears perked up and eyes wide. “John, have you seen this?” I asked as I entered, causing him to look away from the movie, confused. “What’s wrong with it?” Just then, Max came trotting up and nudged my hand with his muzzle, as if trying to guide me somewhere. His excitement was so intense that it infected me, and a tightness grew in my stomach – whatever it was, it was clear that Max was really nervous.
