Silly Kodi
Every time I see a dog I have this huge compulsion to sit on it like one would sit on a horse. This happens for a couple of reasons. One: to see the dog’s reaction and two: for the small chance that I could actually go galloping away in glee.
Different dogs react differently. Tim’s old dog, Lucy, who was a mix of greyhound, lab, and shepherd, ran for her life before I could even put any weight on her. Rylie, Alex and Jaclyn’s Jack Russell, was so small that I would crush it and, well, galloping was just out of the question. And Kodi, my parent’s husky just kind of immediately sits and looks at me with a cropped head as if to say, “Do I get my treat now?”
Well, tonight I think Kodi proved he had enough when Tim and I were watching a movie. Kodi’s favorite spot to sit is on top of the sofa and in the middle of the movie Kodi comes off of his usual perch to sit on me. He plops his furry butt on my right shoulder and straddled his legs around my arm with his front paws on my outstretched legs. I thought that he might have been in the process of going from the couch to the floor, but instead he just sat there and stared blankly, hehe. Tim and I were trying to swat him off but he persistently stayed put.
What he doesn’t know is that I bought a saddle and he’s going to be sorry he ever tried to get even :-)
