~~Stay

I pulled into the crowded parking lot

at the Super Wal-Mart Shopping Center

and rolled down the car windows to make sure my

Labrador Retriever Pup had fresh air.

She was stretched full-out on the back seat

and I wanted to impress upon her that she must remain there!

I walked to the curb backward,

pointing my finger at the car and saying emphatically,

'Now you stay. Do you hear me?' 'Stay! Stay!'
The driver of a nearby car,

a pretty blonde young lady,

gave me a strange look and said,

'Why don't you just put it in park?'

Thanks to my friend Linda who sent this to me in my email this morning.

I know some of you pet lovers will think this is cute.
