Her towering figure loomed threateningly. Three pairs of eyes cringed when they saw her face.
The wild, wanton wake of destruction stared back as she felt her blood boil.
Turning on them, she bellowed, ‘Who dunnit?’
Three tails drooped without an answer.

This is so cute! I love how it turned around from beginning to end. I thought maybe she was trapped or something at first.
Haha… love the image of instant guilt brought about by her question!
I thought there was going to be some serious threats or violence at the beginning – great turnaround!
You know my dogs! This one had me coming and going. Well done!
Oh my goodness, that is the scariest farmer's wife ever. 🙂 Thanks for scaring, I mean sharing this!

Thank you Jen! I was wondering how I could convey it without mentioning the word 'dogs'. Had to edit it a few times to get the word count down!
You should have seen the room 😉
