I love to watch dogs when they're out on a walk.

The young dogs trot along, smiling and wagging their tails, so happy to be out walking with their person. The old dogs walk slowly, but they're still smiling and wagging their tails, so happy to be out walking with their person.

Dogs are such happy animals. They love everybody and everything. As a crazy cat lady who's ruining the country with her poor choices, I greatly appreciate and admire dogs.

Dogs are pack hunters. The walk isn't just a stroll, it is a hunt with their human pack.

Walks are essential. Dog persons who walk their dogs do great favor for their loved ones. Thank You for bringing this to our attention.
Shadow, by the way, loves her walks.

I’m in the second floor so I get to observe people walking their dogs. I don’t know my neighbors that well but I do know their dogs and their dogs’ names. they are four-legged ambassadors of good will. I am also a crazy cat lady
