The dog in charge of guarding the door escorted them inside. The doors opened with a satisfying mechanical click, before swinging on age-stressed hinges. The pair were brought to a room where at least two dozen dogs of differing breeds were socializing. Many were recognizable to the human; including a Basset hound, Retrievers ( both golden and chocolate), a St. Bernard and a Great Dane in very sophisticated attire including monocles, a very flirtatious pink Cocker Spaniel danced around between the groups, and lots of Bulldogs.
