A couple next door just recently got a new little lab pup. I don’t think I’ve seen them take it more than 20 ft. from the house. Now I’m not always around, but I’ve been home more often than not lately due to my move coming up and I could swear I haven’t seen that poor pup go farther than just down the street. It’s always jumping around and trying to play, too, and they just yank the poor thing back inside.

I don’t know if I could ever have a dog, or at least a decently-sized dog in the city. It just seems so cruel.

The worst is this other family that plays fetch with their dog on the sidewalk. They toss a stick and it clatters quite sadly down the sidewalk. Oh well, at least they’re playing with the pup.
