Because Common Sense Just Ain’t That Common Anymore
Anyone who follows me knows that my 8-month-old Border Collie/Australian Shepherd/Great Pyrenese mix, Rudy, is my 4th son. And we spend a lot of time doing what he wants to do. That means we spend a lot of time at the dog park.
He loves the dog park! He loves to play with the other dogs, especially his best friends Zeus, Jasper and Buddy. He loves to run freely around the large fenced area. He loves to greet all the new humans who can’t help but fuss over his cute little face.
We spend about 3 hours a day there, half in the morning, half in the evening. And we’ve met a lot of wonderful pet parents. We’ve also met a lot of morons, some of whom I’ve written about.
There’s a list of rules posted at our local puppy park. People don’t follow them. So I have my own list. They’re not just dog park rules, these are life rules because if you’re this stupid at the dog park, I hate to see you everywhere else.
1. Don’t Bring Your Sandwich Into The Dog Park: This happened today. A woman, roughly my age, so she should have known better, entered the dog park, munching on a sub.
Bitch, you got meat and bread in your stupid little hand and you’re freaking out because my Rudy jumped on you and others followed you around.
