Riley’s new collar

It’s amazing the power a new article of clothing has to transform someone, even for animals.  A little while ago I wrote about my boy dog, Riley, and his pink collar.  Despite being a guy, everyone who saw his pink collar thought he was a girl, and though they say dogs don’t understand what people are saying, I think this subliminally affected him.  Riley peed like a girl dog.  You know, he was a squatter.  Well, this weekend my husband and I were out shopping and we came across a new, masculine collar.  It’s all teal and navy and orange stripes, so we bought it for Riley.  As soon as we put it on him, he transformed.  We went for a super long walk and he peed like a boy every time!  He had his leg up for every tree we passed!  Holy cow!  (Probably gross, too.  We talk a lot about bodily functions in my house.)  So the moral of the story is your boy dog deserves a boy collar.  It’ll change him.
