Naturally, Cinderella and I are famous in our neighborhood. We have lots and lots of kids in our neighborhood, and they like to play outside when we're going on our evening walk. As soon as they spot us walking up, they shout out, "Casey! Cinderella!" and come running. (I know they're mostly coming to see me, but it's nice of them to include Cinderella too.) It's very exciting, and I wiggle a whole bunch. But I make Momma hold on to my harness so she doesn't get TOO excited. Then we let the kiddos come close and they pet pet pet pet Cinderella and me! We're very good and hold still while they pet us and ask Momma a million and one questions, even though they asked the same questions yesterday.
I'm 5 (in a week and a half!!) and Cinderella's 11. No, we're not pit bulls. We're boxers! Yes, both of us, even though Cinderella has cropped ears and I have a longer nubbin. Ewww, no, we're not dating!! She's my sister! Yes, we're very good dogs. Yes, you've seen us here before, we walk here a lot. And on and on. It's ruff dealing with the puparazzi, but it's just something you have to put up with when you're as famous as us. One little girl asked yesterday to take our pictures and our noseprints. She says it's for a science fair project, but I know she just wants a memento.
There's one super-embarrassing part, though. Sometimes we see other dogs along our walk. Since we're incredibly friendly, we have to say hello. Cinderella is really outgoing, so she'll start calling out stuff like, "Hi, I'm Cinderella! I haven't seen you around here before. Are you new? Your human is very cute. You have it very well-trained." Of course, she doesn't get far into the conversation before Momma starts telling her "hush!" Can you believe how rude she is?!?! I have to immediately reassure the other dog that our human is still learning her manners and doesn't mean to interrupt. Then Momma starts saying "hush!" some more and having us sit down and face away from the other dog. In the middle of a conversation!!! She's sooooooo rude!
Does anyone have some advice for how to teach Momma some manners? She's friendly enough with the humans, but she seems to have a real problem with basic canine interactions.
