Round ' n about.....

Dogs pretty much live life in the ‘Now’.....they eat, they sleep, they wander ‘round ‘n about sniffing at the most Gawd-awful things y’ can imagine....’n gen’elly speaking, they’re happy souls.....less of course, you happen t’be taking ‘em to the Vet or the Groomer....
Money’ll buy you a dog ‘n Gawd knows you can spend a lot on Vet bills ‘n grooming if you’ve a mind to but all it takes to get ‘em wagging their tails is kindness....well, maybe a snack here ‘n there.....
So, I wuz down to Plaza Park with Rusty ‘n Willie....we ‘uz checkin’ out the chickens ‘n the spots where other dogs had been....lots of small branches in the park t’day from all the wind yesterday....lots of fresh green ‘n Spring blooms...not too many people there this morning tho’ it’s a bright, beautiful, sunshiny morning here in Ol Fair Oaks....one lonely little kid on the swing set ‘n way off in a corner of the park, there wuz a guy just sitting ‘n watching his dog wander ‘round ‘n about... ‘thout a leash...don’t see that too often these days tho’ it use’ta be quite common...did it m’self back in the ‘old daze’....different world t’day, howsomever, ‘n I got to thinking that some people just shouldn’t be allowed to own a dog.....it’s one thing, if you have a fenced yard, to let your dog wander around without a leash but there’s more’n one reason for the leash law..
‘n one of the reasons is for the protection of your pet...’n if a person is too damn shiftless to take responsibility for his pet, they shouldn’t be allowed to have a pet in the first place...
On the whole, I believe that society has ‘way too many ‘Thou Shalt Not’s’ and I’m not seriously advocating for another unenforceable law... Uh-uh! I’m just venting.....but it’s the idiot pet-owners who allow their dogs to wander free that are responsible for the proliferation of laws against some of the more aggresive breeds like Pit Bulls....’n while I agree that society just can’t have ‘mean’ dogs running around loose ‘n such animals should be humanely euthanized, it might not be a bad idea to at least think about euthanizing the idiot human responsible for the ‘mean' dog also.....
I’m just sayin’.......
