The dog park had been rather quiet all afternoon, but a wave of excitement rolled through all the canines present when a poodle arrived sporting strange new gear. In seconds the fluffy little guy was surrounded by a crowd of curious dogs.

 

“What's that?” a black lab barked out.

 

“Where'd you get it?” a cocker spaniel yipped.

 

“It doesn't look comfortable,” a wrinkly faced mastiff commented.

 

“How do you eat?” a rather porky looking hound asked, sounding quite concerned.

 

Once the shower of questions ended the poodle, thrilled to be the center of attention, began his tale. “My human is making me wear it when we're out of the house now. I swear it was the little girl's fault! She stuck her hand near my food bowl. Of course I defended it! It was only a little nip anyway. It didn't even break the skin.”

 

“Ah, the first time you ever bit someone?” a Rottweiler asked in a wise tone. The poodle nodded. “Humans seem to overreact the first time. I had to wear a muzzle every time we went for a walk for months after I bit the mailman. It doesn't matter to them that it was justified, that he deserved it. All the humans see is the blood. You're lucky you didn't break the skin. My first bite needed stitches,” she announced proudly. “Your human will get over it soon enough.”

 

“Are you saying that you were punished for biting someone?” Sesshoumaru asked curiously.

 

“Unless you're protecting them from an attacker or something, yeah,” the lab answered. “Sometimes even then. Humans can be stupid sometimes, oblivious to danger even when it's staring them right in the face. I caught someone sneaking into our yard and taught the bastard a lesson. He definitely needed stitches… in his ass! Of course when my human came outside I still got in trouble and the creep got a million apologies. I'll never understand them.”

 

“I would never be forced to wear something so ridiculous and demeaning,” the furry four-legged taiyoukai declared.

 

“I wouldn't be so sure,” the cocker spaniel warned. “No matter how well you think you know your human, they get weird when it comes to biting, even playful biting.”

 

“That will not be a problem with my human.” Sesshoumaru gave a doggy smirk before shocking them all with his smug statement. “My human rather likes it when I bite her.”
