Tripping

Paula tripped and fell on the kitchen floor. This was odd. It was not dangerous in any way, just odd. Paula was not hurt. Daniel helped her up on her feet. She would have managed it herself, had Daniel not been there, but it was, perhaps, a little quicker to get upon the feet with a little help.

An advantage of being a dog is that you have four paws. If you trip, you do not fall as far. You get up easier. It is easier keeping your balance. Nothing happened to Paula, but there is even less risk that anything would happen to a dog who trips, than to a human. It feels good being a dog.
