A Bump On the Knees

Okay, so I am sounding like a demented grandmother – pulling out the grandchild’s pictures on the flimsiest excuse.  I’ll stop.  Soon.  :-)

But…
Some months after her arrival and at one of our raucous family gatherings, nobody had noted that Buddy, also an S.P.C.A. rescue and one of my son’s dogs, was missing.  Nobody had noticed  – that is, except Farlie. 
Insistently, she bumped against my knee and moved away, time and again.  Finally, I got her message, followed her to the laundryroom and found a very dispirited Buddy inadvertently locked inside. 
Farlie was praised and we thought no more of the event until the day that Fran put the popcorn in the microwave for two hours instead of the intended two minutes.
In another room, Farlie was again heading and nudging, until finally, Fran followed her back into the kitchen which was thick with black popcorn smoke and getting thicker by the moment. 
A nasty mis-adventrure averted!
We were pretty  impressed.
