I don’t even pretend that Dolphin wants to help in the RV. He simply expects food, water, occasional walks, and a friendly tone of voice.
In exchange, he provides protection from marauding predators. When we are stopped, he moves from window to window, alert for vicious bunnies and squirrels, warning off terrorist robins.
On the highway, he lives in his fantasy world, hoping for rain. When it rains, the magic birds come out, flapping their wings outside the windshield. He runs back and forth on the dashboard, leaping high to swipe with his paws at the moving wipers.
Someday, he is sure, he will catch them. In the interim, he waits, patiently.
