Bliss by Harry Bliss for April 23, 2024

Maybe you should spend less time in the chair, that way he won’t associate you “moving in it” with a walk.

So……do you want him to pee and poop in the house?

It’s a reminder to stand and stretch.

Yes, my Fred gets up when I close a book or my laptop.

Just a 7th inning stretch ;-)

That is precisely our dog but, she doesn’t listen to reason. Then she just slinks away moping.

So you’re saying you want to give me a treat?

The mere implication is all that is needed. The appearance of a tennis ball or frisbee is a commitment.

My dog Maggie gets to run out the front door when there is a squirrel in the bird feeder. If I move in my chair, she runs to the door.

He just wants to be ready for when it does mean a walk.

Oh you silly dog owner you. Of course if you move in your chair it means a walk. Of course if you weren’t so cheap you would live in a house with a fenced in back yard and could let the dog out when ever they wanted to go out.

True.

I LOVE the work of Harry Bliss. Just love it!

“If you bend down, you’re not always going to give me a treat or at least a pat on the head?”

I forget who said it, but “Optimism, thy name is Dog” sure knew what they were talking about. Love it! Thanks for the laugh. I really love how you show the doggie’s tail.

We all need exercise & fresh air.

Whenever I move slightly, my dog thinks it’s time for her to eat or that it’s time for me to eat. Either way, she follow me everywhere.

Just on the off chance the movement MIGHT mean a walk……

I don’t have a fence and my dog can’t run loose. My dog seems to get this, and yet wants to go out probably 10 times a day. Due to her age and a new diagnosis of stage 2 chronic kidney failure, if she wants out, we go out. Luckily so far, even at age 13, she still sleeps all night quietly. That could change any time. Generally, I don’t whine about it – I have always been willing to take her out when she wants to go, unless it’s below zero outside and very icy. I still do it, but really don’t like it.

yes it does…silly owner!

All he hears is “Walk”
