Julius was just done with the door while the dogs were both trying to get over to see Grace. Leave it to the dogs to try and jump the girl he was always trying to impress as well as barking at her. Especially when he was fairly sure that she had a thing for Carter. He pulled back on them with a small jerk. "Hey Grace... Mustang, stay down!" If he didn't maintain his position as "top dog" of the pack, they would just walk all over him. Impala just took it as an opportunity to sit down and wag his tail at her and generally looking happy to see someone new. "Sorry. Trying to get these two nuts a good run around so they'll calm down." They weren't really biters considering both were trained to be around a baby who liked tugging on every part of them. Then they were about big enough for his sister to try and ride. Hopefully she never actually tried it.
"Unless you've gained a new fondness for Gabe though," which would be just his luck, "he's the only one home at the moment. Well other than me, but I'm kind of leaving here for a bit unless you'dliketocomewith?" He hoped it sounded more like he just wanted to get it out before he was out of breath and not that he was actually nervous... That would be terrible.
