It's called 'Dignity'
(This is the last dog-blog post for a while, I swear.)
Some things I like best about my dog are the things she DOESN'T do. For instance she's not an "outdoorsy" dog, in fact she's very "indoorsy." She rolls her eyes when a walk is suggested, and prefers to stay in bed.
She also doesn't do vulgar dog things like BARK or act as a watchdog in any way. And it would be beneath her fetch anything, or catch a frisbee or similar object like the outdoorsy breeds.
No interest in water sports.
The only remotely interesting outdoor activity is HUNTING, but even this she's getting over since it requires jumping and getting excited.
It's as if she has an innate sense of dignity and decorum without being prissy. In return there are certain things I have vowed to her she will never, ever be required to do:
She will never, ever wear antlers, or party hats of any kind, a bow tie or bandana, or (worst of all) sunglasses.
There will be no posing for photos in 'people' positions such as playing a piano, using a computer, or riding a skateboard.
She will never be asked to learn a dance routine from the 'Grease' soundtrack, or do any stupid tricks for that matter. Basic obedience is fine, cutesy tricks are not.
In short, nothing humiliating like THIS .

oh, those poor poor dogs. so cruel. and i have to say, i would be beyond impressed if a dog could actually learn a dance routine from "grease." it would be pretty cool if you both learned a dance routine to "you're the one that i want" and you could do it together. you could both wear those satin jackets like the pink ladies and it would be really awesome.
omg, are you making fun or have you never seen the Travolta Dog video? Maybe I should have put this link in the text to prove it.
Preapare to feel shame.
