Not all dogs are the same...

Yesterday I met Wesley, the 20 lb Siberian Husky and Schnauzer mix. He looks like the dog in the Winn Dixie movie only cuter.

So, I go home and I'm talking to my doberman and I say, "Hey, Riley, I met this dog today and interestingly enough he's cuter than you."

Riley: (no comment)

Me: Yeah, and he had these great blue eyes, such a light blue. When he looked at me, I felt that he could read my soul.

Riley: Ears perked up (no comment)

Me: Yeah, so I'm standing there going, wow, this is a great dog. I wish I had a dog like Wesley.

Riley: Head down, two paws crossed on top of snout (no comment)

Me: So , I was thinking that maybe I could steal that dog because he's so cute I could make a million bucks off of him. You know, you are not as cute, Riley. I know this might hurt your feelings, but someone has to tell you that you are NOT the most cutest dog in the world.

Riley: Sitting up, baring teeth

Me: On second thought, maybe he wasn't that cute, Riley. Here, come lay your head down on my lap. Yeah, that's right. You are the cutest dog.

Then I had to break the news to my black lab that he also was not the cutest dog in the world. Moose didn't care. Give him a piece of bread and he thinks you've given him the world.

And that leads me to something else.

Subjective opinions.

One woman's Wesley is another's Riley.
