Taking the dog for a walk
I noticed it first at San Francisco airport, while waiting for the last member of our party to join us. A very VERY posh young lady walking around, also on the "meet and greet" run. And in her arms, this little dog carried as, it seemed, a fashion accessory.  Looking around here, this business of "taking the dog out for a walk" that gives only the human being the exercise seems to be quite the in thing here - you'll find men and women of all sorts of shapes and sizes (but inevitably looking as if they're fairly well off) carrying these minihounds.I'm trying to make out if this guy in my picture chose his dog to match his hair, or if he's dyed his hair to match his dog. The idea that he might have dyed the dog .... hey, I guess any thing's possible. (written 2005-12-29, updated 2008-06-10)
