"Noah Walking His Human!"

A conversation between my human and I!

"WOOF!  Human! It's time to exercise!"

"No! Noah. I want to practice social distancing and stay inside."

"WOOF! WOOF! No. You can hang out with me."

"We can do that here!"

"BARK! Woof, no, human you need to go for a walk! We are going!"

"I am enjoying myself, Noah! I can lay here on the couch, watch my Railstream and Virtual Railfan, enjoy the sun shining through the windows, nap a bit, read my magazines... oh, I'm liking this social distancing stuff..."

"WOOF! WOOF! BARKS! You've been social distancing most of your life. You need to go for a walk! BARKS! Pawlease don't make me say it.,."

"Good boy Noah... you know me well... so let me just finish some writing and relax... oh... say what?"

"Something to Sniff?!"

"You're getting fat human! You need to go for a walk!!"

"WHAT??"

"You have been snacking way too much! WOOF! WOOF! Barks! You are getting FAT! FAT I SAY! Your belly is starting to crouch over the top of your shorts heading to the south...AND that is so embarrassing that I have to bark or woof!"

"WHAT?? I am not getting fat!"

"W-W-W-O-O-O-O-F-F-F-! YOU'RE GETTING FAT! Barks... summer is coming... and you'll be without your shirt some ... and I am just NOT going to be seen in public, even if it's just the backyard, with a fat human.

"That's rude Noah!"

"Nope. It's the truth! Let's go!"

"Thanks but no thanks!"

"HUMAN LET'S GO! Your belly is going to explode sending fatness and fat particles everywhere... which will be embarrassing enough! BARKS! Until that happens, I am not walking with you and your belly hanging down to your knees with all that fat bouncing all over the place. WOOF! It embarrasses me around my friends canine and human! BARKS! Here's my leash. ....Actually, you should be on the other end of this thing!"

"Alright. You win!"

"You're welcome world- those who see us on our walks! Barks!"

WOOF! My friend "Lab Lady" from Lab Rescue brought be two pawsomely grand Labrador Retrievers looking for a "Forever Home!" together to give double-the-love and double-the-pleasure to loving humans who they can love too! Darby is an 11-years-young Yellow Labrador Retriever and Emma is an 11-years-young Chocolate Labrador Retriever! Paws, they are bonded buddies and must be adopted together!

Barks, the pawsome pair are looking for their "Forever Home!" without too many stairs in a rural or suburban location. They do not have a fence requirement.

WOOFs! Darby describes himself as a most stunningly handsome, light Yellow guy and Emma is his sweet Chocolate girlfriend. Barkingly, Darby likes to swim but Emma's is quite as interested as him! They love chasing and retrieving tennis balls, doing warm-up laps around the tennis court, and, ooops... knocking over the ball hopper thingy! WOOFS! Barks.

The pawsome pair are looking for humans who will support their tennis efforts as they dream about making their way to Wimbledon or the US Open! Barks, and be willing to snuggle too! These two are inseparable!

Darby and Emma may have frosty faces but they still have pawlenty and lovin's to give! They want to fill their golden years with lots of love, snuggles, walks, sticks, and balls… lots and lots of tennis balls! Pawlease view their video's, Emma's Got Her Tennis Game On!, Darby and Emma Tennis Ball Collectors! and Darby and Emma in Tennis Ball Paradise!.
