021- The Tent with a Flag

Jerry of the circus. For Jerry of the circus. Say, Bob.

Yes, Jerry? What's the matter with Mr. Bradley? No, no, no, no, exactly, Jerry. But from all indications, I'd say he had a pretty weak kicker. A weak kicker? What's that? Oh, I mean a weak heart.

Yes, he's got it pretty bad, too. He's been having those faintly spells for some time now. Golly, I don't see Olly went on for the finale this afternoon. Now he decided that he was sure shaken.

Yep, he was pretty weak all right. I look for him to collapse at any time during the walk around. That's why I work closer to him than I usually do. Why does he work if he's so sick?

You know I've asked him that very question, Jerry. He just says that he has to keep working because he needs the money. I think it's just bulldog determination and will pog that keeps Johnny Bradley on his feet at all.

Ready for eggs now? Yep. I mean, that's so good. Let's put rags in his bathtub. Here you are. Come on, Rags. Even the water you go. Awesome! Well, you're kind of like a bass, don't you, Rags?

Sure does. I never saw a dog that liked water as much as Rags does, especially on a nice warm day when the sun's out. Well, here is a nice sunny day today. You'll get dry and no time.

Now here, come on, boy. Give me your paw, Rags. That's a boy. His paws, you're getting plenty dirty, don't say. Or stands to reason, Jerry. Can't keep clean paws running around in this backyard, oldie.

Can you, boy? No, Bob. I think Rags likes the circus. He's never been so frisky and full of fat. Well, of course he does. He's proud of himself. Well, just a short while back, he was just another dog.
