wordinistaI am a firm believer that dogs are a girl's best friend. It is a by now well-known fact that petting your dog (or cat; let's not discriminate here) can lower your blood pressure. And this is a good thing!
HOWEVER.
Dogs that run joyously away from you and leap -- also joyously! -- into trees and underbrush while you are ALL THE WHILE attempting every single recall trick in your considerable arsenal? NOT SO GOOD FOR THE BLOOD PRESSURE.
Oh, Sydney. Honey. The joy-related deafness is such a problem. And here I thought she'd never ignore me if I had food in my hand.
I think I need a little lie-down now. Jebus.
