I used to have a Scottie that would come into my office at almost exactly 3:30 every day and just stare at me. Didn’t bark, didn’t whine, didn’t paw me or jump up. Just stare. I’d eye her sideways, and she would give me a wag that caused the tip of her tail to move about one inch either way. Almost always I’d say “OK”, and she would wheel around and race to the front door. What a great dog.
Our labby has my mother trained. He gives her the eyes, then starts dancing… and looking at her shoes… she gives in every time. She calls my dog her “trainer”. Keeps her active and her doctors happy.
Halfway into our walkies, I would ask my little boy how to get home as I was “lost.” He always took me the opposite direction – the long way home. Fifteen years from his passing and I still miss that little stinker so much…
My wife was out and I was alone with our dog one evening. She was a mixed breed dog—a small dog with a huge heart. I was watching tv when she came over to me where I was sitting down on the couch. She brushed against my legs and without looking I pet her. She rubbed against my legs again and again I pet her as I kept my eyes on the tv. Then I heard this big sigh—almost human—come from her and then she started to walk away. That was when I finally clued in as to what she was trying to tell me, “I need to go out!” So I told her okay we will go out and I think she smiled at me then and out we went!

Come on Louie. Some of the best actors never got an Oscar. They never even got a dinner at a Dean Martin comedy roast.

Either a walk or there’s a really good-looking New York Strip on the barbeque…

Sometimes walking the dog is the only excerise some people get.
