In all societies, we need a way to communicate our needs to those with control. In this case, our evening walk lobby is demanding their due.
The boys gather for the evening walk lobby of the Hu-Dad.
Because Hurricane Michael was scheduled to bring us some evening rain, Hu-Dad decided to shift our walk from after to before dinner. We had a great stroll around the neighborhood and then a filling dinner.
Typhoon puts on a masterful face asking for a walk.
Unfortunately for the Hu-Dad, canine logic says a pre-dinner walk does not replace an after-dinner walk. Thus, we began asking for our evening walk. The Hu-Dad tried logic, pleading and cajoling. Our answer was to protest the unfairness of it all.
How many among you could say no?
When Hu-Dad continued to hold firm to his interpretations, we are afraid to admit that things got a wee bit ugly.
The riots began.
We had a great after-dinner walk. How about you?

Finding Shade
Kiska says that on hot, sunny, spring days, you have to find shade wherever you can. Thanks Big Brother Kodiak.

Those Boys! They are always conniving!
???????????????? What a great story ????????????????
Me-I could NEVER say NO to those faces!!! I do it here with our big boy Bradley. If he gets an extra walk-it NEVER takes the place of the REAL one!!! LOVE this story and the pictures!!!!
Haha! Thanks! I don’t feel like the only softie for the ‘scheduled walk’ face. We don’t gave much rain weather but warmer temps mean earlier walks.
BOL – we love a story with a happy ending! So glad you got your after dinner walk!
I can never resist the pleading eyes of our dogs either.
Oh, you had no chance with those looks and were so outnumbered. Was Cheoah just waiting it out, letting the boys do all the convincing?
Cheoah just sits and watches the antics, probably coaching from the sidelines.
Servant..how dare you defy our wishes….you will follow us when we tell you to!
…Soo true!!! We can NEVER miss our routine walks…even if an extra walk is added in!! Our routine walks are SACRED????
Such adorable pictures!!!
Great story!
Love those faces!
