76. (animal) Beagle
"Ron, the puppy chewed up another one of my books." Hermione picked up the shredded book holding it between her thumb and forefinger. It was still damp with drool. It had been Ron's idea to get a puppy. He had picked a brown and white beagle. Hermione had not cared much for the dog since the beginning. It chased Crookshanks and Ron refused to discipline it.
"It'll be great practice for when we have kids," he stated. He poked his head into the living room.
"Maybe you shouldn't have left it on the floor," was his only response. She glared at him.
"It wasn't on the floor, it was on the coffee table, where the damn puppy shouldn't be able to reach it."
"Must have fallen off, or maybe he knocked it off, you'll have to be more careful, Hermione. You know puppies get into everything."
"You're the one who wanted a puppy, Ron. Now, can you please train the dog to stop tearing up my books. I've noticed he doesn't chew on your broom."
"He wouldn't dare."
"Fine, I'll train him then, since you won't." She tossed the ruined book in the rubbish basket, making a mental note to buy a new one, maybe a hardback this time?
