"The Good Old Dog."

00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:11.780 align:middle line:84%
We had a 16-year-old Elkhound
that was really like a mother

00:00:11.780 --> 00:00:12.280 align:middle line:90%
to me.

00:00:12.280 --> 00:00:18.250 align:middle line:84%
I mean, those Elkhounds
are pretty domineering

00:00:18.250 --> 00:00:20.410 align:middle line:84%
personalities, if
you've ever known

00:00:20.410 --> 00:00:23.950 align:middle line:90%
an Elkhound, wonderful dog.

"The Good Old Dog," "I
will lay down my silk robe

00:00:30.050 --> 00:00:35.940 align:middle line:84%
beside me near the old
bed for the good old dog.

00:00:35.940 --> 00:00:40.470 align:middle line:84%
She loves the feel of it, and
she will push it, and pull it,

00:00:40.470 --> 00:00:44.580 align:middle line:84%
knead, and scrape,
until she has it right.

00:00:44.580 --> 00:00:48.900 align:middle line:84%
Then she'll drop down,
heavy, silver, and black,

00:00:48.900 --> 00:00:52.890 align:middle line:84%
in the moonlight on it,
and a couple of pillows,

00:00:52.890 --> 00:00:58.440 align:middle line:84%
not bothering the cat who
has taken over her real bed,

00:00:58.440 --> 00:01:02.930 align:middle line:90%
and breathe out deeply.

00:01:02.930 --> 00:01:11.470 align:middle line:84%
Gorgeously fat, her face
like the face of the seal."
