The living story

The story so far

Rusty is a red blur with no brakes and no regrets. His ancestors set game birds for Irish aristocrats; Rusty sets a personal land-speed record every time the back door opens. Beautiful. Unstoppable. Sorry about the mud — he isn't, but the family says it for him.

Happening now

He has discovered the sprinkler. Not drinking from it — running through it, at full speed, in circles, until the yard is a swamp and Rusty is the happiest shade of brown. The aristocrats would not recognize him. The aristocrats are missing out.

What may come

The family is considering agility classes. Rusty considers the family too slow to keep up. They may both be right.
