THE CHAIRS

I saw a strange place this week. Jet, my foster mom, said we were going to visit a special park in a place called Oklahoma. I love parks. I can almost always find lots of squirrels and rabbits to chase in a park.

This park was different. Instead of creatures, it had chairs. They were all over the place. Jet gave me a visual aid below so you can understand what I was seeing.

Jet explained that the chairs were planted (kind of like a tree) in the park to represent people. Why not just plant the people? She said that each chair represented a person who was now in heaven: big chairs for grown up humans; little chairs for kid humans.

…There were a lot of chairs.
What happened to all the people? She said some bad guys blew up the building with all of the humans inside it. I’ve seen cool TV clips showing buildings being blown up but all the people got out first. What would possess one human to blow up other humans?

Jet didn’t have an answer for me.

So, here’s my lesson of the day… Chairs should be for sitting in not for use as gravestones.

Okay, the question of the day is from Fester who asked: When I go to doggie daycare the other dogs seem to have a lot of fun. I find it scary.


Dear Fester
Some dogs are like you and find doggie daycare a bit daunting (word of the day). Based on your letter, you’ve only gone a few times. Keep going for a while and see if you don’t get more comfortable. You will probably find that adventuring most of the day with your own kind beats lying on the sofa all day at home. Plus, you will learn social skills; Jet says this is very important for dogs and men.
