| Hello folks! Woof! |
They're getting very common, and I like to call them The Luminous Leg-its!
![]() |
| Come back, come back, woof! |
We can easily recognise them due to their vivid, all-weather uniforms.
This young lady ran past me along the River Don today, and, like I always do, I thought "Ooooh, a human! Must speak to her..."
Woof, you see, I'm a very friendly dog when it comes to humans (yeah, I'm a coward with dogs), and I love speaking to everyone. At the bus stop, I walk along and all the old wifies coo over me!
Anyway, I tried to speak to this lady, but she ran away!
![]() |
| STOP!! I need to say hello to you! |
However much I cried, she just ran away from me, like she was running for her life from a scary thingie.
She just wouldn't stop, and I don't know why!
I mean, I'm not that scary, am I? Woof?
| Oh for goodness sake! You're just a scaredy cat, you! |
I've come to the conclusion that these impolite humans are just big chickens. They run too fast, and won't even stop for a wee sheltie like me.
| Whiney, whine! |
So, it is my new mission to catch one!
Hope you have a super week!
Cheerio,
Pippa :) wuf wuf


LOL Pippa you get one and bite their ankles. I am after the lycra louts on our parks and their bikes.
ReplyDeleteHave a serene Sunday.
Best wishes Molly
Good luck bagging your first luminous leg-its. We have a bike you can borrow :)
ReplyDeleteps, Mum was just making an ordinary fruit cake, Dad loves them (he would eat Christmas cake all year round, given the chance!)

Oh Pippa, I see them all the time, and their cousins the luminous pedal-its. But as for catching them, I fear it is a hopeless case. And one has to ask oneself, would a human so keen to hasten away from a gorgeous dog (like you and me) be worth barking to anyway?
ReplyDeleteToodle pip!
Bertie.
What in the world is wrong with peeps anyway, like you all we wanta do is talk. Now Dad stop for every doggie we meet to talk to and pet!

Some humans are dumb and impolite, they don't understand us :/
ReplyDeleteShe should have at least yelled hello is she was in such a hurry . . . . .Sigh! People can be so rude! Lee and Phod
ReplyDeleteI think they be pretty boring peoples any way, Pippa. All they do is run, run, run. More fun to take walkies and enjoy the scenery.
ReplyDeleteOMD, that was so funny Pippa!! That was just plain rude of that big chicken lady to run away from you!!
ReplyDeleteWho would be afraid of your sweet face??! Pfffft. Obviously she was raised in a barn.
Good luck with the next one!
Kisses,
Ruby ♥

ReplyDeleteDear Pippa,
ReplyDeleteI wish you to catch one of them very soon! Don't give up!

Those humans were so rude to keep running like that and not even saying woof to u.
ReplyDeleteI always stop for nice pups during my runs. If I lived there, I would be sure to stop and say Hi.
ReplyDeleteHoping you catch one! They treat me the same way. Ugh. They just don't get us!
ReplyDeleteOh wow. A rare luminous leg-it! We don't have many of those here. Good luck catching one!
ReplyDeleteMy boys are pretty good when people walk by, but can be obnoxious when other dogs are around.
ReplyDeleteOh Pippa how rude of her not to stop and say hello.. Someone needs to be taught some manners BOL xxooxxxx
ReplyDeleteMollie and Alfie

Oh Pippa I know what you mean - I hate it too when peeps just run or even walk away without stopping to say hello. Woofs and licks from Magic xx
ReplyDeleteLooks like your having a fab walk!
ReplyDeleteWhat will you do with it once you catch it.
ReplyDeleteAnd I must add they are a bit crazy for not stopping to coo over you...I certainly would!
You're so cute, Pippa, that I would totally run TOWARD you! Silly lady!
ReplyDeletePippa, the package arrived today. We haven't opened it yet. We'll do that after dinner.
