People (and dog) Watching

If you watch people when they walk their pets, you have to wonder if their attitude reflects their parenting or potential parenting skills.

Some walk at the animal's pace, letting it amble along sniffing, checking out everything while others drag their furbabies by the neck, impatient to get it over and done. Makes me curious if their children have the same attitude. The lucky ones have someone who knows they are confined most of the time and walking is as much about exploring and getting out as exercise while the others regard it as just another chore that takes time out of their busy lives. You have to wonder why they even bother having a pet.

Can't you just see laidback, happy kids while the others are Type A from hell!?!
