Grossy Grossman

More on walking with Hattie  (aka, Grossy Grossman)

A walk with your dog is about so much more than exercise.  It's about bonding, enjoying nature, and, as Grossy Grossman will demonstrate......eating.


Are these walks 
just for exercise?

Oh, heavens no!

They're also 
for feasting, 
for binging,
for dining on the go!

And feast Grossy will--
on anything she sees,
or smells,
or can reach, 
from the end of her leash.

Her tastes are simple.
She does not discriminate.
And, since her manners are lacking,
she needs no fork or plate.

She snatches up dandelions,
that are way past their bloom.
And nuts, seeds-- 
even paper--
the big buffoon!

She likes pine cones
and leaves,
still stuck to their bushes.

She'll eat anything--
and everything--
with nary a fuss.

I've seen her eat vomit!
I've seen her eat garbage!
She rummages through trash,
better than most other varmints.

Nothing's off limits.
Nothing's taboo.

But her favorite
would, 
sadly, 
still have to be
poo.

She always seems hungry.
Does she never get full?
And her desire to eat gross things,
makes our walks rarely dull.

You'd think I don't feed her,
this little brown lass
But if she don't learn to "leave it,"
I'm gonna whoop her ***!

But when I tell her to do so,
she never seems to hear.

For the tastes
that she's tasting----
they're like music 
to her ears!


Walk on friends-


I hope you and your dog(s) enjoy your daily walks as much as 
Hattie Mae (Grossy Grossman) and I do!
