Yes, Romeo the staffie has a beautiful smile. But it conceals such wickedness …
The note I need to leave for dog-sitters checks out like a file from the previous, now departed occupants of a haunted house. “Never, ever off a lead – nowhere is safe”; “If you see the boston terrier from next door, back away; if you see the husky from over the road, run – don’t walk”; “If you walk after 10pm, that is the hour of the fox, and will go hard on you unless you want to sacrifice the fox”. It is humiliating, and my choice is to have the exact same dog-sitter who I’ve understood because he was 10 and doesn’t require me to state all this two times. Plus, he remembers my last dog, so he understands that I’m not the issue. The dog is the issue.
Last weekend, he was away, so he got his friend to fill out. “I love dogs and haven’t been able to spend any time with one since I left Ecuador,” was her very first message. Oh, lady, no: this is not that type of dog. Among individuals, Romeo might radiate a wonderful, passionate energy, and advise you of enjoyable dog-related minutes you have actually had in other lives. Around other dogs, he will advise you of the savagery that resides in even the sunniest heart; he’ll advise you that life is tough and the salaries of sin is death. A bit later on, she sent a video. He was smelling a flower; he appeared like Ferdinand the Bull, the mild animated giant who didn’t wish to combat, who just wished to value the botany. I indicate, he didn’t look unlike a bull in the very first location – he’s a bull breed – however this was various: this bull declared peace.
Then she began sending out photo-montages, in a few of which he was garlanded with phone sticker labels – more flowers, a celebration hat. He was smiling, the method bull types can. It appeared like his profile on a dating app, however if I’d seen him on dog-Grindr, I would have right away flagged him to the appropriate authorities.
She was quite determined when I returned, however, that he was a good dog, or to offer him his correct title, a Good Dog. He’s had a mini-break from individuals who understand him, his slate wiped tidy, and possibly all of us should have among those.
