EXPEDITION: DEPARTURE

[ino]

[ To Terre Haute we go! Hope you've packed your things, travelers, because it's going to be a long trek there. Feel free to mingle about in the lobby with everyone else waiting to get going, or grab a bite to eat! After all, it might be awhile before you see fresh food again … ]

He gets plenty of exercise, that's not the issue. The issue is that he'll wear himself out if I allow him to sniff all the things he wants to right now.

[staggeringego]

And god knows no one wants to have to carry him halfway through the trip.

[workaphilic]

Not if I can help it. Keeping him under control also drastically lowers the chances of him running off, never to be seen again.

[staggeringego]

A lead ought to do that too.

[workaphilic]

A lead doesn't give me any more control than I would have otherwise, I still have to hold on to it. Training works better and is lends itself to my actually getting work done.

[staggeringego]

Well you certainly are strict with him.

[workaphilic]

Better that than the alternative.

[staggeringego]

What? Actually holding onto a lead?

[workaphilic]

I have better things to do than constantly wonder if he's run off yet, especially when I can just train him not to run off at all.

[staggeringego]

He's a dog, he'll always come back even if he does wander for a moment.

[workaphilic]

That's not even remotely true.

[staggeringego]

Of course it is! It's a known fact about dogs.

[workaphilic]

Good luck looking for yours, then.

[staggeringego]

I won't need it. He'll always be back once he's done whatever business he has elsewhere.
