Greetings Humans.
I am about to reveal my true identity. Prepare to be amazed.
I am about to reveal my true identity. Prepare to be amazed.
By day, I am Scarlett, mild mannered Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. At night, criminals, a cowardly and superstitious lot, call me... Batdog.
People think it's an obsession. A compulsion. As if there were an irresistible impulse to act. It's never been like that. I chose this life. I know what I'm doing. And on any given day, I could stop doing it. Today, however, isn't that day. And tomorrow won't be either.
My calling as Batdog was evident from an early age.
When I am not fighting evil (the BAT), I live (sometimes) peacefully with my faithful sidekick Robin (who you may know as Melody, pictured below after we defeated THE BAT).
We are (somewhat) ably attended by our butler/valet, Laura. She tries her hardest, but she has recently made a terrible faux pas in the the wardrobe department. In my work as a crime-fighting superhero, it is important that I can slip through the night like a panther, pass through the jungle like a leopard, well-camouflaged and sight unseen. All was going smoothly until my Valet presented me with this...
We are not amused.
As if the orange stripe and THIS clue weren't enough..
Our identity is now obvious to all.
I predict an increase in crime of unprecedented proportions. You know whose fault it is. You know who to complain to.

Scarlett, Do not despair. If you check out Arrow, you will see that the hero's (?) outfit is far, far worse than your at least warm blankie purple thingie. So a few people might notice you - deeds of extreme daring and bravery can still be performed. It is not attire that maketh the dog. :). It is the heart that beats beneath. Loved your blog, keep up the good work! x
ReplyDeleteLOL! Scarlett, I suspect if that your disguise is on the reverse? If you get beat up at the dog park, threaten the other dogs that your valet will make them one. I'm sure they will then leave you alone.
ReplyDeleteSeriously adorable, Laura!
Now Nikko is whining to get one... Can't get sympathy here.

Don't let my valet see that costume or I'll get one in plastic. Check the link to see what I mean.

Too cute. A superhero should never complain about looking stylish, you know.
ReplyDeleteFunny Funny! More posts please Scarlett!
ReplyDeleteVof Scarlett! Great post and thanks for sharing your secret! I know it's not easy to train those humans, we do our best but they have so strange ideas. At least they try to make good meals. I think you shouldn't wear that bat outfit on duty! For her pleasure use it only when sleeping in your cosy bed. Hugs from Nero
ReplyDeleteHehe, love it. I think your valet needs to make you a matching face mask/helmet, for the sake of maintining a secret identity of course :)
ReplyDeletePoor Scarlett, you just can't get the staff!!!
ReplyDeleteWell, a real superhero needs a cape, doesn't he? I just love it!
ReplyDeleteSo cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you for my morning giggle!
ReplyDeleteWonderful post! I'll sleep sounder at night knowing you're out there Bat Dog!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Love the "not amused" expression!

ReplyDeleteOh we are seriously not amused. Who knew a dog could look quite so disgusted...
