Man's best friend
Young Master Darius and his retriever slave, "Boof" are inseparable.
The pair have been together since childhood when Darius' father gave him Boof as his very own slave pup. As can be seen from Boof's expression, he is completely devoted to Darius and patiently follows him everywhere.
Darius likes to hunt and enjoys nothing more that those times spent alone with Boof, leashed and following at heel, as he searches for game to shoot.
And Boof also enjoys these moments alone with his beloved master and eagerly awaits his master's kills when his leash is slipped and Darius commands him to
"Fetch, Boof!"
Eagerly, Boof retrieves Darius' kill and returns it to his master and revels as Darius ruffles his hair and comments.
"Good boy, Boof!"
And Boof has other "hidden" talents that his Master enjoys at the end of each hunt!

Wonderful fantasy ! …… of course set somewhere in a future Africa, of this “NEW ORDER WORLD” !
ReplyDeleteThe canine total faithfulness and full passive submission to his black Master of the “white dog” Boof is really the ultimate level of a slave’s degradation !

I wonder if Master Darius also enjoys the sport of "slave hunts" (either for sport or for actual profit)? And does Boof also participate in such hunts?
ReplyDeleteThere is a great few episodes of Game of Thrones where the slave, Reek, is following his Master as he pursues human query. I think that even the quarry might have been one of Reek's relatives.
