Let's Pet Puppies!

There's a shop on Ashland and Roscoe in Chicago called Let's Pet Puppies in which patrons walk in the door, sanitize their hands, and take all kinds of puppies out of their cages and pet the shit out of them. It's good in that you can cheer yourself up on a bad day by holding all kinds of adorable little puppies of various breeds, but bad because you feel like an asshole when you have to put them back in their little two by three cages. Today, Gancey Girfriend and I petted Multipoos (Multese and poodle mix) and Shih Poo (Shitzu and poodle mixes), and they were God damned cute as fuck.

How about you, Seven Readers? At which shop do you like to window shop with no intention of buying a darned thing?

Baby, I wish I could say that All I Want for Christmas is you...but honestly, all I want for Christmas is a multipoo. LOVE YOU

Holy shit, that store is still there?! You have no idea how happy that makes me. I used to live only a few blocks from it and the name would make me smile every time I walked by.

(P.S. Hope that all is well in the Gancey's health world, lately.)

I think they gave Mo a key to that place cause she is in there every week.

oh god puppies... im much more of a kitten person but i cant deny my love of fluffy puppies.
when im in a bad mood id pay all kinds of money to roll around in a big pile of kittens. if there was a kitten store id live in there.

but as for the question- i try to avoid going to stores when i can't or won't buy anything. but on the occasions that im at the mall and out of money i feel the need to touch everything in the store, even the stuff that i wouldnt want if i could afford it.

Anon: Appreciate your honesty, babe. I can't compete with the cuteness of the Multipoo.

Mystery: Holy crap! So good to see you come by. I remember that you used to live over there because you contended that the little Jewel over there had prettier people than the one by me on Ashland. : )

Nobes: Looks like Nobes is getting him a puppy! Let's take a double-date field trip over there. Let's ditch work and do it!!!

Lyn: I've never done that outside of when my nephews were born, like going up to the hospital with the sole purpose of looking at babies. Let's Pet Babies!! That sounds creepy . . .

Jov: My best window shopping experience was trying on a pair of leather pants just to say I wore some so I could feel like Jim Morrison for a minute or two. I had ZERO intention of buying them. Know what you mean . . .

So do they actually SELL puppies, or are these purely dog hookers?

Dr. Kenneth Noisewater said...

5000: Yeah, you can buy them too, but I usually feel bad for not buying any, so I drop a fiver on the counter and pet away.
