If you don’t care for either of those topics, I suggest you stop reading now. A little over a week ago, I decided to sand and repaint the stairs leading from our patio down to the back yard. They hadn’t been painted since we bought our house back in 2000. In order to keep our dog Midnite from messing up the works, I shut the doggie door and made her stay in the patio and the house. Because it was an all day project, we had to take her out front to “hacer sus necesidades” (loosely translated – do her thing).

Mean-eyed vicious killer dog
What I forgot is that Midnite has to be one of the world’s most fussy poopin’ dogs. She has to have some green under her butt and not just any green, it has to have the proper “texture” – otherwise, forget it. We eventually ended up taking her to a nearby park before she burst with indigestion (or worse). A few days later I came upon this article by David Feherty in Golf Magazine that described a similar dilemma. I enjoy good writing and I hope you like it!
