Hi
- Mike Kennedy, here. We live on a golf course where a lot of
retired people walk their little dogs every day. The neighbors started
to call me, King! Here's why I'm King: I like to sit on the patio
with my head resting on top of the three foot high fence. When I see
another dog walk past the house, I get up and run to the part of the
fence that's five feet high, stand on my hind legs and bark. One time
one of the neighbors asked my family if we had an electric fence or
something hidden that kept me on the patio because I could certainly
jump the three foot fence if I wanted. My mother replied, "Oh, he can jump
the three foot fence at any time. But, it seems that he's going to
great trouble to show you how constrained he is by barking from the
highest point of the fence. He's putting himself in a position where
he can't jump the fence. I think he's very thoughtful - don't you?"
After that the neighbor started to call out, "There's the King of
Neighborhood - protecting the castle without crossing the moat!" Now
everyone calls me King. I think it fits.
