 It's
a Wonderful Life: A Dog's Blog by Ziggy
People who’re afraid of dogs are soooo annoying!
Hi everyone,
I hope you had a better weekend than I did. As everyone knows, my
favorite thing in the whole world is to play fetch the ball with my
friends. Well last Sunday when all the little kids had their ballet/
jazz/ hip hop recital here at the Pacific Dance studios and Art Center,
I had to stay home. Mom said that lots of people would be attending
and that some new people who don’t know me may be afraid of dogs
and may get uncomfortable with me running around the place!
When mom first rushed out, leaving me behind with tears in my eyes,
I was really mad at her but as I got thinking while playing couch
potato all day, I realized that it wasn’t really her fault if
some people just don’t get dogs. She’s just trying to run
a dance studio and wants everyone to feel at home here. It’s
not her fault if some people are so silly as to be afraid of dogs
just because they were once bit by one years ago or worse if they
have never even been bit by one and they’re just afraid anyway.
Didn’t some famous person say that there’s nothing to be
afraid of but fear itself?
At least I got to watch the video of the dance recital later on that
evening. Everyone was so cute. I just loved the costumes. My favorites
were the 3 year olds pre ballet class in their gorgeous blue genie
costumes and I also loved the tutus the 5 year old pre ballet class
was wearing. The recital ended with one of the older girls performing
a Flamenco dance. It’s always so impressive when you see a kid
do a solo dance without making a single mistake.
Before I go I just want to tell all of you people out there who’re
afraid of dogs, that on occasion it has happened that I was just minding
my own business, when one of you guys has walked in and has taken
one look at me and has jumped back screaming and acting out. I’m
always really embarrassed for you. I mean I was once kicked by a person
but so what? I don’t go screaming and acting all paranoid every
time one of you walks into the place; I mean that would probably make
you feel really bad about yourself. So next time you lay eyes on me,
please get over your selves, just smile and throw me a ball! Thank
you.
