Hah!!! OK, enough with the stomach on legs deal!! All of this frivolity and laughter at the expense of my poor, little innocent (???)Star. Poor baby. She sulking in the corner as we speak. Carrie: I did tell her about your doggie's ice cream adventure and she gave a giggle and a big "paws up." Little Brat! Once I met a mortgage loan officer (to whom had we had applied to for a home mortgage) at an outdoor hot dog stand. I had my (since passed, God bless her) precious lab/golden mix Jingles with me. The woman put her one hand out to shake mine and Jing very quietly and gently slid her hot dog right out of the roll! Down the hatch! What technique!! Thankfully the woman was a dog lover. We got the mortgage despite the hot dog theft. Dog park??? A park that allows you to bring your dog.. We Americans have designated dog friendly public grounds!
