I was sorry to leave the hotel: Sophie was my biscuit friend, and waited for me to finish the crumbs before sweeping. At the new house the tall man has a noisy howling-box but I must be quiet. The old dog won't play, but I go out early with the tall man to sniff. Then run home for another breakfast!

Thank you for this charming 60. I love howling-box, and the pup taking Holmes for a walk, and that ending.

Thank you! I do like to think of Watson sharing a few morsels of his breakfast with the puppy. :)

That poor pup might do well to steer clear of Holmes, considering what tends to happen to dogs on his watch.

Holmes is where the action is! but let's hope this pup remains innocent regarding what happens to pups not owned by Watsons!

I second kudos for the howling-box and the taking Holmes for a walk. Welcome. Excellent fic.

Hello:-)
I like the reason for missing the hotel, and a pup's eye view of Baker Street.
Well done:-)

Hello! And thank you. I imagine there's lots of excitement for a pup on Baker Street. :)

Separate Breakfasts Yes, of course - Watson was getting up later than Holmes. And a dog wouldn't want to wait. It's rather touching that Holmes was taking the puppy out for Watson. I love the detail of "the old dog won't play" and I love the puppy's enthusiasm.

And I echo Small Hobbit's welcome: thank you for joining in! ^^

Thank you! I imagine it's hard to say no to a tagalong pup. :)

And thanks for the welcome-- I'm pleased to have joined in (just) in time for a new round!
