Warnings: It's Jen and Daryl wrestling with a puppy. You might die from the combined awesome and cute.
After receiving confirmation that Detective Warda would be coming to her rescue, Daryl gained a second wind. She had thought that washing the puppy would be simple, but Toby seemed to have different plans. So far, he had tracked mud and water through the kitchen and part of the living room, making sure to smear a bit on the walls whenever he could. Daryl's shirt was splashed with sudsy water, and her left sleeve was soaked through. She had the sleeve rolled up now, baring her pale arm, and reached up to tie her hair back more tightly after strands had fallen out in messy clumps.
Hearing a knock at the door, she heaved an enormous sigh of relief. Help had arrived. Hearing Toby romp around in the kitchen, she opened the door, seeing Detective Warda standing in the doorway. Daryl looked quite the mess, though she didn't seem to notice. Glancing behind her, she beckoned hastily, ushering the other woman inside. "I don't want him to get out," she explained, shutting the front door the second the other woman had come in. "I took his collar off so it wouldn't get wet...I am learning that that was a mistake."
