Lockdowns and Loneliness

I am lonely.  I am desperate.  The dog next door is attractive.

The dog’s name is Donna.  I am thinking about asking her out.  Of course we would wear masks and social distance.

Will Donna’s owners allow me to date her unchaperoned?  If so, then do I have to have Donna on a leash?

Where will we go for our date?  The restaurants and theaters are closed.  I suppose we could go to a park and play fetch.  Will Donna mind throwing a stick so I can fetch it?

I asked Donna out.
“Thank you for asking,” she said.  “Tell me, have you had your rabies vaccine?”
“No,” I said.
“Distemper?”
“No.”
“Kennel Cough?”
“No.”
“Thanks again for asking, but I don’t think we should date,” she said.

Oh well, she probably has fleas.
