The Dog on the Golden Street.

Today i met a dog while walking home from the Village. I always walk home from there along the much discussed pretty street with the pretty (expensive) houses because, you know, it's pretty. It's now a red-gold tunnel and it looks marvelous. The dog was just standing on the path in front of said expensive houses, staring in a mildly interested manner at some leaves. It was white and scruffy and had somewhat muddy paws. We spotted each other when we were about 10 metres apart, and he (assuming male) smiled a happy-shy doggy smile and made happy tail movements. So i stopped and said hello, and patted him for a bit, and he put his paw on my knee twice which probably is his version of patting humans. So so disgustingly cute. I would have rubbed my face on his head like i do with Baeng if he didnt look like he spent part of his morning rolling around in some mud. After some sniffing around and tail wagging, i waved byebye and picked up my new pot of gardenias and continued down the golden street.

New doggy friend!
