I have to say New York is THE most friendly dog place I have ever been too. Dogs are welcome everywhere in every store and even though your not allowed to take them into places with food, people do. Monte is a small dog, the rats we saw the other night were bigger than Monte. Which isn't really a good thing on a few counts. This morning Monte and I were hanging out at our local on the Lower East Side grabbing a bagel when a man walked past and asked if she was a Saint Benard puppy. Now this man is not the sort of person yer going to mess with so I just ummed a bit and said I think she's just a mutt, he looked at me blankly, so I went on and said you know bit of everything, he kept looking at me blankly so we left quickly. The next corner was another woman with a puppy the size of a small car that wanted to play with Monte, Monte turned into a ferocious ball of snarling, growling, spit fire bad worded creature. The lady looked very taken back and pulled in her large puppy as I explained that she was a cross and grumpy bugger like her mother. She laughed and again we left quickly.
I then took Monte home. I think we were both happy with this.
Hi Bec,
ReplyDeleteThanks for signing in at Smithellaneous recently.
I loved your dog story and had to smile when I thought of how our our 6-pound dog, Snowy, always thinks he's much, much bigger than he actually is and will "take on" dogs much larger. Like Monte, he doesn't realize just how entertaining is ferociousness is. :-)
