D.O.P.-T.

[weofodthignen]

The housemate decided her dog's muzzle-leash ("gentle leader") was just too disgustingly encrusted with everything in the neighborhood that he'd rubbed his snout in, and washed it in the laundry-room sink yesterday morning, then left it soaking there. And forgot it was there when she turned the washer on in the late afternoon and started researching something on-line ... the washer that drains through a hose into the sink. I woke at 5 pm to a cacophony of barking dogs, stumbled into the kitchen to see whether they were going to be fed, to find two towels floating in the sudsy water on the laundry-room floor and the bathtub full of soaked plastic poop bags that had been in the plastic trashbag on the floor in front of the sink, and the guilty dog guidance device hanging on the towel rail. I went quietly back to bed rather than get in the way.
