I THINK I JUST SOLVED MY GROCERY HAULING PROBLEM!

The only thing is deciding who should pull it. Spike would go apeshit, Squish would crap himself in terror and Cassie's too small to haul much.

Clearly I need another dog!

Ahahahaha *g*

What a spectacularly bad plan!

ISN'T IT??? I can't wait!

German Shepherds are nice. Or Pit Bulls. There's a LOT of Pit Bulls round here...

I foresee you pulling it and the dogs sitting in it!

Don't be giving them ideas now! You know Spike writes reads all my posts!

Star would most likely just sit down and refuse to move XD; whereas Katie would probably try to attack it, or start running blindly in terror.

That's the thing - for about one second there it was a brilliant fun idea, till I actually imagined trying to hitch either of my dogs to it. Augh!!

hmm, maybe if Cassie has enough kittens I can train them as a team...?

That looks like a job for... Super Husky!!!

Oh yeah... maybe not...

He has the most adorable handlebar ears :-D

So which one of those two would be a better cart dog, do you think?

Well Mackie's ancestors have been bred for millenia just for that purpose. So of course I get the one descendant that would be utterly useless at it. He'd just chase it until he got dizzy and threw up. I'm going to have to go with Allie. She couldn't haul much, but damn she could get what she could haul where it's going faster than a bike courier in greased spandex! :D

Mackie's just smarter than all his ancestors. I mean, which is better, living in your house or working your arse off in a mob of other dogs out in a snowdrift living off dried salmon?

He's very torn between the culture he was bred for and that which he was raised in. If I keep the house too warm in the winter - like 27 degrees - he'll go sleep outside in the snow when it's twenty below. Then he'll come in and crawl onto my bed if I don't have his special doggy bed laid out. I'm half convinced he has a multiple personality disorder.

I totally want a pulling dog someday. We have a very nice mastiff/something mix at the shelter that would make a fabulous cart puller. ...I wonder what shipping overseas might cost.

It would be a really awesome thing to do, wouldn't it? One day.

A mastiff'd be big enough to pull a cart you could ride in, no? (Well, maybe not me. I am no lightweight.)

I just sprayed cherry coke through my nose.

Why not both at the same time? What a handsome team they'd make!

Because, much as they love each other, if they were restrained right next to each other with one scared and one pissed off, someone would DIE. I've had Spike thump Squish for me treading on his leash before... there'd be CARNAGE.
