Even the orneriest curmudgeon has a weak spot to be exploited as Hu-Dad well knows with our own Little Prince.
Typhoon likes to convince everyone he is a rough, tough sled dog… or, at least, related to rough, tough sled dogs. Thus, he claims no simple human tricks can make him melt.
And then Hu-Dad breaks out the ear rub which is a weak spot. Who can possibly resist an ear rub? That’s a secret weapon that can make the coldest canine melt.

A Shark Attacked My Best Friend
June 20, 2025 - In honor of the 50th anniversary of the theatrical debut of the movie Jaws, the film that was the inspiration for these events, D. K. Wall recorded the story in audio and video. The original story was posted on October 9, 2022.
A shark attacked my best friend when I was 11. His screams were awful. The silence that followed was worse. I was alone in the ocean.
Enjoy it your way
