S2 was perfectly comfortable, resting on the porch swing, but the puppies were becoming more & more restive. Merrick looked at Louden, & they followed their noses to do some dumpster-diving, returning with an assortment of take-out containers & the remains of the house-warming snacks. The puppies were grateful.
#3 emerged as they were finishing off the last of the orts. "You animals," he tsked, "have only to ask for your supper. Look at the mess you've made!"
They all looked at him, cutely, as if they didn't understand him, distracting him from his incipient snit.
