here's my take on today's photo prompt, fresh from my camera:

"Leave it. Leaaaaaavvvvve it. No. Drop it. Drrrrop it. Yes. Good girl. Fetch. Good girl! Okay. Bring it here. That's right. Now leave it. Leeavvvve it. No, sorry. I mean drop. Yep. Drop it! Coco drrrooopppp it. Yes -good. Good g--ewww. That's right. Coco's still a good girl. Ick. She's an icky girl. Such a slobby girl. That's right. Sit. Ssssiiiiiiiitttt. SIT! Good. There's your leash. Want some water? I guess I should take the ball. Eww, right. So maybe I'll leave it. Ha ha. Leave it. Leaaaavvvvve it...."
