Oh, good, the new dog really was friendly. At least, he seemed friendly -- Dief was deaf and couldn't actually hear what he was saying, but he had a pretty good sense of these things.

He introduced himself with another bark and indicated that it was nice to meet Wishbone. Ben and Ray seemed to be busy with what looked like very loud talking, so he figured he was free to hang out for a bit. He picked up a bone he'd been toying with and nosed it towards Wishbone.
