Ads for Marley and Me show up once in a while. They're fun, and the things Marley does look funny. However, except for the bit about driving the car slowly so he can walk his front paws on the pavement, I have to assume that any person with an active dog is going to have seen his or her dog do something just as charming and funky.
I mentioned this to Kathy, then was reminded of the time Oz and I had walked up Cedar Hills and Thad came biking back around the corner with Lilly. Oz was super happy to see her, and she was happy to see Oz, but Lilly was overheated from the run, and literally frothing at the mouth. Oz tried to play, and Lilly did a little, but only till Thad put some water out for her. Then she flopped down to drink—laying on her side, with her tongue lapping downward into the water. Oz mirrored her, so all of a sudden, there were two dogs on their sides, drinking sideways from a shallow trough of water.
Of course, come to think of it, half the strange/silly stuff Oz did, or more, I was in on. From trying to lick a snarling dog to being buzzed by an owl, we did them together.
