Carson was on the floor in the living room, playing tug o' war with Trinket who was growling playfully, one end of a pair of tied together socks firmly in her mouth. However when she heard Brendan's voice she dropped the sock and immediately scampered into the front room, tail wagging as she yipped and jumped up to put her paws up on Brendan's leg.

"I'm in the living room." Carson called out, offering the sock to Sparky who just looked at him as skeptically as a dog could.
