Ohmygosh, it is the same with Tibbe. If I am going out, he has to go outside first, then get his harness, leash on and gets so excited as I'm getting water and this and that together plus his carrier and such and then getting it all in the truck and buckled in and him settled. I'm worn out by the time I get ready to back out the drive way! And Tibbe attracts so much attention wherever he goes, kids and all just flock to him, people want to hold him, people grab for him and he just lights up and encourages them and they coo and carry on and more people come over and it gets to be a hassle so I just don't take him with me as much as I used to. Plus, more and more stores are not welcoming dogs due to the big, scary ones that people want to bring in so sadly Tibbe has to stay home a lot. But he had fun out at Walgreen's today as I just grabbed him up and went, not many were there except two ladies - one with two male Yorkies at home and we talked a bit. He does so enjoy greeting folks! He had a ball being fawned over by the ladies.
