<\/a>Once we were in the truck I used my most adorable \u201cpleeeese\u201d face to get Nice Lady to let me sit up front and her to ride in the back, it didn\u2019t work, but she had just washed the big pillows that go on the floor back here so it was not only cushy, but fresh smelling.<\/p>\n<\/a>When we got to the store, a nice gal came right out to greet me and welcome me inside. She even gave me some treats to eat.<\/p>\n We wandered around for a while, looking at things.\u00a0 Hairy seemed to think I would be interested in this rocky-thing because it kind of looked like me, but I wasn\u2019t \u2013 it was creeping me out.\u00a0 Besides, I knew where I wanted to go and kept trying to steer them into the proper aisle.<\/p>\n So Hairy loaded a bag of kibbles (darn!) on a rolly-thing and we headed back toward the front. On the way I met several Peoples.\u00a0 Almost all of them were nice to me; most told me what a handsome boy I am, some stopped to scratch my head.\u00a0 The only ones who weren\u2019t nice were a couple with a rolly-thing loaded up with kitty litter. Humph, cat peoples.<\/p>\n When we got up front I met an Australian Sheppard named Fly.\u00a0 Nice dog, but she did the silliest thing.\u00a0 The gal who met me at the door would throw a ball down an aisle and Fly would run after it, pick it up and BRING IT BACK! I don\u2019t understand that. She threw it, SHE should have to go get it.<\/p>\n Curry has started doing the same thing.\u00a0 We go to the play yard each evening; Hairy, Lady, Curry and I.\u00a0 Sometimes Lady throws a ball and says, \u201cGo get it!\u201d and \u201cBring it back.\u201d And he does!\u00a0 He runs after it, picks it up and thinks it\u2019s just the greatest thing in the world to give it back to her so she will throw it again.\u00a0 I don\u2019t understand it, but I\u2019ll have a talk with Curry one of these days about proper, dignified, dog behavior.<\/p>\n That didn\u2019t go over very well when she got there and they both tried to get me to go in back. \u201cNuh-uh, not going.\u201d So we compromised and we both sat in the front seat. I like to sit on Lady\u2019s lap at home; this was kind of like that. I don\u2019t think it would work for a very long trip, bit it was OK for a short jaunt.<\/p>\n It was a bright and sunny Saturday, a perfect day to go for a ride in the truck. And since my kibble bucket was almost empty, it was also a perfect time for that truck ride to take us to Tractor Supply Company. So I paced and humphed while Hairy Face and Nice Lady got … Continue reading “Cochise Gets TLC at TSC”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[19,73,59],"class_list":["post-4591","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-life","tag-adventures","tag-cochise","tag-dogs"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4591","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4591"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4591\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21573,"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4591\/revisions\/21573"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4591"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4591"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pineymountainfoster.org\/thoughts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4591"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/a><\/a>Yes! Finally! This is the aisle I like best: yum! Now, which one do I want to take home this time: so many delicious-looking choices!<\/p>\n<\/a>Then we went over to the kibble aisle.\u00a0 My Peoples tried to get me to help pick out the kind I wanted, but I kept telling them I\u2019d much rather have a bowl of cookies every day. The cookies come in big bags too, just get one of those.<\/p>\n<\/a>Lady put the treats I picked out for Curry and me up on a counter, so I stood up to tell the guy there that these were mine but Lady would have to pay for them because I don\u2019t have any pockets. He gave me little treats to eat, too.<\/p>\n<\/a>Hairy and I went back out to the truck, Lady walked next door to the City of Food place to get each of us a drink. \u00a0I climbed in the back but then hopped right between the seats, \u201cShotgun! I claimed it, this is my seat.\u00a0 Lady will just have to ride in the back.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/a>When we got home I was all tuckered out.\u00a0 What an exciting day! Hairy unloaded the truck and carried it all inside.\u00a0 Lady and I stretched out in the living room to take a nap.\u00a0 We needed to rest up a bit before we all went up to the play yard that evening.\u00a0 But I had a great time; I do love going to TSC!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
