21 Mountain Dog awakes and speaks..

The mountain dog first opened one eye... then two and sat quietly watching Recoil..

Seeing it regain consciousness Recoil both laughed and cried, holding it as it rubbed its wet nose against her face..

I brought a bowl of water over for it saying "water" as I placed it by its side..

Then between slurps... it spoke saying.... "water" quietly, and continued drinking..

Recoil and I looked looked at each other wide-eyed...

Once it had quenched its thirst I pointed at myself, saying. -- "Vladimir.. "

And at Recoil and I said "Recoil.."

We both sat watching its large furry head.... waiting.. "Vlaadimiir".. it spoke... "Reecoil"....

Recoil and I turned and looked at each other, both bursting into laughter..

When we looked back at the dog we found it laying on its side with its paws covering its eyes.. hiding its embarrassment...
