A Dog's Eye View of the Dog Show

One thing I'll never have to worry about is being put on display in a dog show. I wouldn't make the grade, for one thing, because of my under bite.  Although I think that makes me stand out more.  Add's to my charm to look like I'm always smiling.  She was watching the dog show today, so it got me thinking...so glad I don't have to ever be in one of those shows.  This is for a number of reasons, they look under your tail, pick up your ears, push the sides of your face together, ugh-who needs that? Then there is the prancing around in a circle, all to go back to the same place where you started.  No squirrel or birds to chase after, no treats, so what's the point of that?  Can't see it really.  Do I really need a ribbon saying best in show?  I already know I am the best, so I don't need a ribbon to say that.  Snort.

Exercise

Okay, what's the deal with exercise?  I thought walking and chasing after anything that moves outside was considered exercise.  That's all I need.  So, I always pick up one of my loofah dogs and hit her on the back of the leg if she is doing sit-ups or on the ankles if she is doing crunches.  One day she gets the bright idea to have me lie on my back and lift me up and down so I can do sit ups as well.  Very nice.  No thanks, too top heavy and too much work.  Let's just go for a walk and work off the calories that way.  Besides, when are outside, there is always so much to see and explore.
