Chapter 81 - Tent Camping
Hobo nibbled on willow leaves as he sat inside the oxygen tent. He wasn’t really sure why Dad had coaxed him into the tent, but at least there were treats in there. Mocha watched from outside the tent and saw Hobo had treats. He wanted some, too! Mocha slithered through the hole that Hobo had chewed in the tent years before.
“May I join you?” he asked. Hobo said, “Sure!” The two shared the willow leaves, like they did everything. After they finished the willow, Hobo got up to leave. But Dad stopped him. “Hang on big fella,” he said, “You gotta stay in there a little longer.” Dad began stroking Hobo’s head. “Oh, OK,” thought Hobo. He liked having his head rubbed. He settled down and closed his eyes. He liked the extra attention.
Before long, his fifteen minute therapy session was over. Dad said, “OK, you can go if you want, now.”
Hobo relaxed for a few more minutes before he got up and slithered out of the tent. “Wait for me!” said Mocha, as he followed after Hobo. This was their new nightly routine.
Dad uses tricks to keep Hobo inside the oxygen tent for his treatment.
