Notice how everything in the neighborhood happens near this same mailbox?
In The Great Roundup, I told how a little girl pup from the neighborhood invited herself on a walkabout, and I helped her get home. I sort of thought that this might have been a bonding experience for us and that she would think fondly of me and mine afterwards.
Nope. The next day Toby wanted to walk down her street because his favorite harem girl (remember her from Odoglisque in Dream Our World?) lives nearby. Even though we were 1/4 of the way into the family across the street’s yard, this femme fatal came charging after my timid little Toby and rammed into him at full speed, growling all the while.
I try to be patient with the dogs realizing that they are a different species with a different perspective on the world, but this little girl really should be restrained. I worry that she might hurt my Toby or turn on me. There is also her own safety to worry about. Little dogs don’t check for cars before crossing the street.
I hope I never need to draw a story about her using the color red.

The mailbox is where they all wait for the mailman. Then they fight over who gets to bite the mailman.
It’s also how most pmail is delivered!
Its OK, Toby. I remember when girls would run across the street and body slam me. Actually that never happened but I have a good imagination. Anyway, enjoy your girlfriend’s attention.
Toby strongly believes that all the ladies are interested in him. ; – )
He’s right. How could anyone resist that face?
We remember the harem girl from Dream Our World! Toby, sounds like you’ve got a few girl friends. Apparently, this one doesn’t want a boy friend. That said – her humans should keep an eye on her if she’s not friendly and runs in front of cars.
Mom doesn’t want the little dog hurt even if she isn’t friendly toward me.
Is Toby okay? That little girl needs to be on a leash. It’s a requirement where we live, not that everyone complies. It’s safer for everyone.
So far, Toby has been OK. We have leash laws here too, but for some reason this family doesn’t believe their girl leaves their yard.
I hope they never find out the hard way.
