Who's really the owner here?

[Mr. Schmucks]

I told my GSD we were just going for a short walk. Now I’m 8,000 steps in, my coffee’s cold, and he looks like he’s just warming up. Who’s really the owner here?

Sounds like your dog promoted you from “owner” to “personal trainer.” At least you’re getting your steps in! Do they always decide the route too?

I am nothing but a servant to them

They choose, I follow

Haha, classic shepherd move. They always act like the first few thousand steps are just a warm-up lap. Mine has this look halfway through like, “Okay, now we’re finally getting somewhere.” Meanwhile, I’m the one plotting the quickest route back to the coffee pot.

Truth is, we don’t own them, we just sign the lease and pay the rent.

On a separate note, welcome to the forum!
