Horizon Ridge Come Sail Away

You get my 100th post!!!!!!!

Julooke had tried to go by Thistle and Ragnar's den often to bring fresh food to the new Mom, and to see if she was out and about. She usually wasn't. However, Julooke never called for Thistle, thinking if she disturbed her too much, she and Ragnar might get upset. Still, she always hoped for more time with the couple. With Thistle's knowledge of herbs and healing, and Julooke needing Ragnar to learn about his culture, it was difficult for her to stay away from the pair. There was just so much she needed to learn from them! She wasn't exactly scared that Ragnar would mad at her for her frequent visits, because she did respect his traditions of not seeing the new pups until they were a month old- which seemed like forever away! She had never tried to even sneak a peak, and made sure not to even look inside the den itself.

Today, she had a plump, juicy rabbit between her jaws, and was trotting briskly toward Thistle's den. She slowed to a walk as the clearing came into view. Her gaze settled on Thistle, and her ears softly folded on her head as her tail wagged, happy to see her friend and mentor. She walked over and placed the rabbit beside Thistle before backing up a few feet to give her some room. She lowered her body to the ground, her tail still waving back and forth. Hey, Thistle! How are you? Julooke had a bad habit of sticking herself to people who may not have wanted her company. She always tried to be as polite as possible, but she was so gun-ho about the pair that they must be tired of her by now. Not that the thought entered her mind.
