Part 1.2

"
Animal Rights 10.1.07 Monday

I was at work yesterday and a woman in the store had a little white dog with her.  (People often bring their dogs with them -- it's no big deal to have them in the store.)  I really enjoy talking to people about their dogs.  They refer to them as members of their families, which is cute, I suppose.

Anyhow, this gal is walking around with her pooch, limp in her arms, browsing the merch.  I walk from the front of the store out the side door to the patio behind her and say "Ohh, what a cute little dog!" thinking she'd gush and swoon and give her little mutt a smooch or nuzzle.  She turns toward me, pup still in arm, and says "I'm sorry.  We don't use the 'D-word' in our house."
