Walking as a dog in Jersey City

This morning we went on our cold morning walk with Poppa Greg at around 9:30am and I noticed that it was hard for us to cross our side street because there was so much extra traffic, so we went around the block instead.  I wandered about slowly and I heard our Poppa talking to the UPS delivery man behind our building.  He said that about an hour before then a bus had crashed into a house and he was lucky that he had been late dropping off packages this morning cause that was where he usually was  ( You can read about it here...).

I remember before our Daddies had a light put in on our corner outside there used to be a couple of wrecks a week (and there have even been some since then, there was one a couple weeks ago too) right in front of our home.

I guess my point is that it's important for us to listen to what our daddies say outside and to stay on our leash because we don't know what other people or animals might do out there.  I know sometimes Woofer starts to poop in the middle of the street while we are trying to cross and it freaks Poppa Greg out.  He knows he should have gone before we left the sidewalk or just waited another few minutes but sometimes Woofer can't help himself.  Woohoo on the other hand is always sprinting ahead and ready to run.

It really makes me mad that they won't let us sniff and pee on the electric boxes and light poles, but Daddy always reminds me that it's because in the city (especially when it's cold and damp) sometimes these have been known to kill people and their dogs.

It's hard for us to remember to be careful always when we are on the street walking because we are so excited to get to go outside.  I'm sure glad our daddies love us enough to look out for us and be careful enough for the whole family when we go out.


  Yip,
