Close Encounters of the Furry Kind

So I'm walking on the trail this morning, and a lady walking four dogs approaches from the opposite direction.  The lead dog, who isn't leashed, confidently waddles up to me to get some behind-the-ear scritches, which I happily supply in abundance.  (I have quite an overstock so I can easily spare them.)  Then I look up to see the other three puppers patiently waiting for their respective turns, entire bodies wagging happily in anticipation.

Again, I oblige.  I'm like Santa for dogs on Christmas morning over here.


Next thing I know, I am tangled up in leashes, and I suddenly realize this could be a ruse for a kidnapping.  (Then I remember: I'm poor, so I should be okay.)


Eventually, I get extracted from the leash tangle, and bid them all a good day.


This will be an excellent day.
