Dog World

I have an eighty pound dog that is deathly afraid of butterflies. He believes himself to be a lap dog.He refuses to stay outside unless a human friend is with him, preferably my husband, for they are soul mates.He grumbles like Scooby-Doo when we pet the other dog, pushing our hands away and nosing our hands towards him instead. Dimitri is highly intelligent but very needy. My fifty pound mongrel runs around the tree in a circular pattern, creating crop circles in the grass, with his tongue hanging out while yipping at rabbits and squirrels that pass by. He never stops and even manages his bodily functions while running. WE call him the Forrest Gump of dogs. Vladimir pulls Dimitri around the house by the collar.Now I absolutely love our beasts but it is quite disheartening when I see the incredibly bright dogs on Facebook throw basketballs through hoops or catch a frisbee from a moving car.
