Yesterday she needed to go food shopping and take me for a walk, so we went to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pikeplacemarket.org\" title=\"pike place market\">Pike Place Market<\/a>. It&#8217;s a leading tourist attraction, especially in summer. Perfect or a CUPPIE: right downtown and dogs allowed.<\/p>\n<p>I like Pike Place Market. All those tourists miss their dogs and they make a fuss over me. Usually I can scarf up some forbidden food. Yesterday I had a big piece of pizza crust in my mouth when my mom stopped and, right in front of everybody, yelled, &#8220;Drop!&#8221; She pulled that tasy tidbit right out of my mouth. Sigh.<\/p>\n<p>But another reason I like Pike Place market is this: I can usually persuade my mom to stop by the dog park on the way home. On weekends she&#8217;s ready for some friendly conversation and there&#8217;s always at least one familiar face for her. I get extra running time.<\/p>\n<p>And yesterday I got a bonus. Cathy was so tired she was falling asleep over her laptop. She didn&#8217;t notice I&#8217;d grabbed a hunk of cheese until it was almost gone. Yum! See, I&#8217;m saving her from all those calories.<\/p>\n<p>Cathy doesn&#8217;t agree. Luckily it was the low-end cheddar. &#8220;If I&#8217;d bought Double Gloucester, you&#8217;d be in the dog house,&#8221; she told me firmly.<\/p>\n<p>Good while it lasted. Off to another nap. Maybe next time we&#8217;ll stop by 3 Dog Bakery because I am named after the founder&#8217;s dog. The fact that they have awesome peanut buter treats is completely irrelevant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My mom Cathy keeps busy so she likes to combine her projects and errands.
