Anyhoo... of course Farmer H and I have been discussing Lucky since he disappeared last Monday. It seems like every TV commercial since then is about pet sitters or pet foods or pet medicine or just has a dog in the commercial for people products! I'm sure I'm just sensitive to seeing dogs right now, so I notice the presence of canines more.
NOW, The Universe is mocking me!
When I was in 10Box at the lottery machines, I saw a guy walking a little dog on a leash. INSIDE the store! A cute little dog, light brown, looked like maybe a cross between a dachshund and a chihuahua. He was long, but didn't have the full dachshund ears, and his face was a bit shorter, too.
The guy walked the dog back over to the checkout. I guess his wife was paying. He turned to me and said, "SOMEbody's going to win all the money!"
"I WISH! As long as I win enough to keep playing, it's fine with me. It's my entertainment. I like your little dog. I have a half-dachshund half-heeler. Shaped like a dachshund, but colored like a red heeler."
"Oh, they're something all right!"
Yes, they are. I was hoping he would tell me more about the little dog, but the groceries were paid, and they started out.
I mentioned this to Farmer H.
"This is the second time in about a week that I've seen a DOG inside 10Box! What's up with that? I thought businesses didn't allow dogs inside, unless they were seeing-eye dogs."
"Oh, yeah! Everybody lets them in now. I guess so many people saying they're support dogs."
"I guess they're afraid to ask. In case somebody will say it violates their rights, or they shouldn't have to disclose 'health information.' It just seems odd, people bringing their pets inside."
Who do they think they are, flaunting their pups in Mrs. HM's face???
Don't they know how inconsiderate that is, if another shopper just had a new dog disappear?
