Last time we were circling the neighborhood looking for an empty spot, I asked my human why we don't just trade our big dumb car for a little smart car. She just sighed and said Because you and Dutch won't fit in one.
Oh.
Well. I kinda took that as a challenge. I mean, the car we ride in isn't exactly huge. And we don't get to ride in the whole car either - just the part my human calls the "dog pod". Which is just her way of making the little back compartment with a big window sound cooler than it is. Anyway. I wanted to show my human that us dogs weren't going to stand in the way of easy parking - prove that we all could fit in a tiny car. And yesterday I finally got my chance.
The car was tiny, yellow and parked right in front of our house. It was a convertible, so I just jumped right in. It felt big enough to me, but I couldn't convince brother Dutch to get in it. NO WAY, he said, am I getting in THAT. My human just kinda laughed.
Puglet, that's not a car - it's a Go Kart. And it's not ours. Please get out before whoever it belongs to comes back.
Uh-oh. As my human was taking today's picture, the Go Kart people walked up. They were visiting from Germany and had helmets. They didn't really mind that I was sitting in their Kart & asked my human if she could take their picture too. We got to talking so I asked what it was like to ride in the little Kart. They said it was fun, even though they almost got hit by a bus. Twice.

Hi Puglet! Even though that little car/go kart is cute, you do not want to put your life in danger by riding in it. You look very cute in it, but I think you would be better off in something a little larger like a Mini Cooper. Mom has one and I got to drive it yesterday. Check out the pictures on my blog.

Ooooh - a Mini sounds nice and small. I wonder if Dutch would fit in one? He's kinda big.
