things i've noticed about my dog

First, he's way cuter than any other dog that has ever lived. Inarguably so.

Second, he's not that bright. I think that's a direct correlation to his cuteness.

Third, despite the above, he is a bonafide urine inspector. If anything has peed (peeed? pee-ed?)  anywhere near him, he will know, and he will eradicate the scent immediately, with the cunning use of more urine.

Fourth, he engenders loyalty from those around him. Case in point: while all kinds of assholes on my block think it's cool to leave their dog's crap on the sidewalk for mine to sniff and step in (if not for my vigilance), Skip encourages those who walk him to make use of their small plastic fire-hydrant-housed blue bags.

Lastly, he is really very cute. Especially when he begs. Bad lesson to teach your owners, Skip, but I guess after all, you're not that bright.

What will happen when Skip meets Emmett:

Crying.

Thoughts of a possible attack.

More crying.

Tentative sniffing.

The end of tail-wagging, after which, Skip will be pulled away from Emmett.

Safe on his leash and behind me, Skip slips into his patented "bad-ass" bouncy walk, perhaps accompanied by an indignant (but hollow) bark.
