Summary: Phyllida's Maltese dog Calliope escapes!

*

Calliope's claws skitter on the polished floor, finding no purchase until she reaches the rug; then she sprints. A puff of wind comes in, just two corners away. She can smell grass and a heady mixture of scents beyond the lingering smell of cooking.

Fast as the wind on her short legs she goes! A maid exclaims as Calliope darts by her, and then--freedom! Fresh air!

Calliope prances in the kitchen garden, and when chase is given, sprints again, down the slope of the hill, towards the trees. They'll never catch her alive! At least, until she gets hungry.

Thank you!

Sorry for all these late replies, it's been what it's been, you know.

Awww, dogs. XD This must be exactly what little dogs think when they make a break for it.

I think Calliope is still a fairly young pup at this point, chase and play instincts high. Thank you for reading!
