Walk by Fantasia Dog
The human spent a month complaining that autumn seemed to have forgotten to come here, but at last the days are getting cooler. That means I can go for a walk earlier in the afternoon.
Right now, it’s school holidays as well. You know what that means? It means sometimes on my walk, we will see a child who will ask my human: “May I pat your dog?” Then I get pats.
I like making new friends on my walk.
The other day the human and I had just started out on my walk, when we heard one of those scooters behind us. A voice behind us said, “Does the dog bite?”
Bite? I’ve never bitten anyone.
My human said, “No she doesn’t bit, she just tries to con people into patting her.”
The voice said, “I’ll pat her.”
We heard the scooter drop on the ground and a small human ran up and patted me and gave me big hugs and asked my name and told me he loves me.
Then he got on his scooter and went on ahead of us.
A bit later on our walk, we went past the bus stop, and the same small human was there, and he gave me more pats and hugs.
That was a really good walk.
I wonder who I’ll meet on my walk this afternoon.
If I met you on my walk, you would pat me, wouldn’t you? You have to ask the human first, but she’ll say yes because she knows I love making new friends.

Absolutely I’d ask to pat you, Fanta. I store up extras just in case I meet a lovely pup like you 💞 💞 💞
