Clean was a good thing Bo new, Chloe didn’t like unclean animals in the house. Which was why he tried to give Cat a bath once. She did not like it near as much as Bo liked his. In fact she went crazy!! Thankfully Bo had quick healing on his side or he’d still have scratches from that particular adventure to show for it. At least Cat wasn’t too messy. Not like him. But he knew when Chloe said to clean up that he should be spick and span when he saw her. All squeaky clean. At least that was what one of the girls said. Bo wasn’t squeaking though…did that mean he hadn’t cleaned good enough?
He worried about it the whole way there. Fussing over his clothes, resisting the urge to play with anything in the car that might make him dirty. The driver up front gave him a look when he tried. Or maybe that was because he was trying to climb into the front seat for a better view of the city passing by.
The worry over being clean enough or wearing the right thing was gone once he got to the store though. He was completely mesmerized by all the stuff going on around him. People were rushing this way and that. Pretty girls were posing and flipping their hair. Others were in the middle of dress or undressing…Bo wasn’t sure which he just knew that they had flesh showing and he knew he liked that. He liked it better when it was Chloe’s though. She had pretty skin. She had pretty everything though.
Which was why he was grinning from ear to ear when she spotted him and spoke. Bo quickly was rushing over to her, taking her hand and kissing the knuckles like he’d been taught. Sometimes it was hard to not lick or nuzzle or do far more then just kiss. He had to remember he wasn’t dog like. Even if Bo always was pretty dog like. No matter if he was on two legs or four. He’d spent years now in the human world and it was still a strange thing to him. He didn’t get a lot of it and he didn’t really want to either.
He puffed up a bit when she said he smelled good, all proud of what he’d managed to do right! Then of course she said the clothes had to go and he lot a bit of that bravado. Clothes were one thing he always picked wrong on. They were so…strange. Bo had the bad habit of matching up colors that should not be matched together. That was often why Chloe picked his outfits when they went out. He always got into a huff when she made him try to pick his own.
“Oh…” he spoke, glancing at the clothes as she tugged upon them. He should have just come naked, that worked better then picking wrong clothes. Was more comfortable too. Lucky he didn’t have to look dejected long. She said he got to play with pretty girls. He didn’t care about the being dressed up part at that point. So as he got to play a bit. “Okay, I can do that!” and of course he’d be the most enthusiastic one in the shot.
