Nap Time Surprise in the Backyard

A bushy-tailed raccoon creeps up the back of a big sleeping dog stretched out on the grass. The raccoon’s pointy nose pokes forward as he places his paws softly on the gentle giant’s fur. His striped tail fans out, and his eyes peek with curiosity, almost like he’s deciding whether to play or nap too.

The dog lies fast asleep, with his head resting on his paws and his ears drooping in peace. Soft lines show the rise and fall of his belly as he dreams away, unaware of his mischievous visitor. Little tufts of grass peek up around them, turning this quiet yard into a spot for funny animal friendships.

Fun Fact!

Raccoons have a tough stomach lining that allows them to eat a wide variety of foods, even things that might upset other animals.
