This is a short, fun fic that was an entry in the 'It's A Dog's Life' challenge over at the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
ds_flashfiction community. It is a literal day in the life as experienced by Dief inspired by Patricia Finney's I, Jack. Seeing the due South world through a dog's eyes is fun and sometimes confusing. I love how the author limits Dief's way of explaining the world only to the terms he would know and makes smell more important to Dief's world than ours. Anyway, I think this is better experienced than described, so the short quote below expresses the whimsy of this fic and shows why you should take the time to read it better than any additional words I could find:
Fraser won't wake up and won't wake up and I go circle the room and sniff under the door and I can smell the rest of the house out there and then FINALLY HE WAKES UP!!! And he putter-putters around, runs the water in the tiny room, sends the water away, grumbles to his self, puts on the fake-fur pieces and the hard paws and FINALLY WE GO OUT! Down steps, to hard-like-rock ground, and I finally get the news. News that the big-slick-coat-dog left on the steps, news that tiny-fluffy-dog left, some cat news (stupid), news from dog I don't know. I leave my news on the steps to say My House! My People! Stay away!
