Wordy Wednesday

Sam here. Ever notice how uprights have a double standard when it comes to us dogs? Remember…keep your eyes on the path and not on your social media so we can both enjoy our walking time together.

Live, love, bark! <3

  2. Sand Spring Chesapeakes – Cambria, WI – My husband and I have six "furry" children Gambler, Glory, Guilty, Slammer, Gertie and one cat Bones and two furangel's Norman and Nellie. We breed Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. We are both avid hunters. We also enjoy competing with our dogs in hunt tests and field trials. That is where you can find us during the trial months which are April-September. When were not at a trial we are busy training our dogs. We go snow goose hunting in Canada each year and do all the hunting that Wisconsin offers.

    Yes I have a mobile(cell) phone. Yes it is in my shirt pocket – but that’s generally where it stays. Only my wife and sons know my number – and a very few close friends. If someone calls it is generally for some purpose and I will answer it. {UNLESS I AM DRIVING!!} but other than that I never refer to it or bother with it. It’s just there – there is nothing I need to check every few minutes.

      Precisely! I am astounded that people have to check often and repeatedly.

    A long time ago when I had a dog, he would make me crazy peeing on every damn thing. By the time we got back he and his bladder were both exhausted! Now I know he was getting mail.

        Remembering that dog I’m sure he was looking for the “X” rated mail. Bad pup he was! Hadda love him though.

              Hahaha. I think in the canine dictionary under ‘hound’ there is an equal sign and then the word ‘terrier.’ LOL

  5. the whole point of walking with your dog is being with your dog.
    i don’t say anything to some one who is ignoring their dog but i mutter growls to myself. sure there are times when i wish lily would move on, usually when the weather is lousy. most of the time me an lily will stay in the moment and enjoy each others company.
    well enough growls from me.

  6. My Golden Life – Upstate South Carolina – I love animals, especially dogs. I enjoy US history, and reading biographies of our former presidents and other historical figures. I love the music of the '60s and '70s since I was growing up in those decades. I love the Beatles and Andy Williams equally.

    When I take the girls to the park, the phone stays in the pocket except for a quick photo op. Otherwise I’d be walking into and falling over them or their leashes. 😝

  7. Funny, and so true! There’s a woman we see walking her dog in our ‘hood here and every time I see her, she’s bent over her phone. She doesn’t pay any attention to her poor pup or what’s going on around her.

  14. We see this guy at a local park we walk to in the mornings and he’s always staring at his damn phone while his dog sits and gazes up at him with a dropped ball at his feet. Gets us so mad to see him ignore his dog all the time!!!

      Sounds like he’s related to a guy in my neighborhood who nearly walked into us while he was reading his phone and then gave us the stink-eye! Ugh.
