To Walk or Not To Walk by Fantasia Dog
I’m having an argument with the human at the moment.
She thinks we should have our walk as late in the day as possible. She says that gives the footpath time to cool down from the heat of the day, so as not to burn my delicate paws.
I do want to look after my paws. But I also want to go out for our walk earlier in the day. Specifically, I want to go out when the teenagers from the local high school are walking home.
When we go out while the high schoolers are walking home, often one of them will stop and say something like, “May I pat your dog?”
Then the human will say something like, “Yes, my dog would like that.”
You know what happens next, don’t you? I get pats! It’s great. I get extra people patting me. Who wouldn’t want that?
The human still says a cooler footpath is more important than me being an attention hog. I still say she’s wrong.

She dislikes baths, cats when they do bite her ears, and dogs who bark at her when she’s out walking.

That’s ok. We don’t walk when it’s raining either. Enjoy your holiday weekend!
