"Why is there a cup of water on the corner of the floor of the pantry, and where are Hunga's bowls?"
Cook looked sternly at Mimi, who said, "The bowls are in the Hobart getting a good sanitizing, because even though he's the only one eating out of them everyone, or every dog, needs clean, fresh bowls once in so often, they get rather awful..."
"He liked his bowls the way they were!"
"Well, then, he can have the fun of dirtying them up again for a few weeks before they need another wash, and meanwhile, the cup is so he can have some water anyway even while his bowls are washing."
The dog of their discussion came running in at this point, straight to his corner of the pantry and, seeing the cup, stuck his nose in and began slurping thirstily as Mimi looked on with an indulgent smile.
"Hummmmph, just don't let it happen too often, I know for a fact dogs take great delight in getting their things smelling and looking just so, and you can quit smiling so big..." and Cook stalked off muttering about how some people just don't understand what dogs love as Mimi chuckled quietly.
