Our beloved bassador is beloved by many many humans and nearly as many dogs (and even a few cats!) So what could be worse for all concerned than social distancing? Grace doesn't have a clue why I am suddenly pulling her - nay, dragging her - away from all of her friends. Her friends are equally distraught, even those who understand why. Grace is such a sweet, lovable dog, the whole world wants to love on her, and now they can't. Some humans have even argued with me about it. Luckily, I am very good at just saying no to mammals of all stripes. If I have to, I play the "my wife works in a hospital" card - leaving out the part about her working from home these last three weeks.
I don't know whether Grace has figured something out or whether it's just a coincidence, but the past couple of days she has intentionally cut her walks far shorter than normal. She does her essential business then leads me straight home. Is it because it's just no fun any more?
I reckon we'll never know.
