Bark at the Moon


If you go outside and start barking like a dog, the whole neighborhood will come alive with distant barking from all directions.  Man, I must have had a boring childhood.  Tonight, I went over to a neighbor’s house to let their dogs in for the night, while their owners were out of town.  I caught myself talking to them as if I had known them all my life.  For some odd reason, dogs seem to understand me.  Not when I bark… I’m talking about speaking to them as if they have a full command of the English language.  My dog knows when I am happy and when I am sad.  She knows just the right time to put her head on my leg.  It’s been said that dogs can read minds.  Whatever.  All I know, is you can talk to a dog and they listen better than most humans.  I just wish they wouldn’t crap on the floor.
