Oh, your baby is so…um, hairy?
New York, NY - I’m a sucker for dogs – really, I am. In fact, from about 50 feet away, I was admiring the cute little black dog that was being walked with the ‘baby’. As I got closer, I was like, dang, I know this is mean, but that baby is kind of uncute. And then I saw it: the baby was another dog! Are you kidding me? There are more dogs than people in NY (I’m making that stat up, but there are a lot of dogs). In fact, there is a thriving dog industry in New York with dog parks, dog cafes, dog sitters, dog hotels, dog, dog, dog, and it’s all just great, but this was a doggy first.
I needed to know the reason why this pooch was being pushed, so I asked the nice lady if the dog was injured or something and she said, “Nope, he just likes the stroller.” Only in New York would someone push their dog around in a stroller because they like it!! I think she was taking him to the pool next to chill out on a lounge chair and have a margarita.
