I'm Checking Out your Dog, Not you!

With the warmer weather approaching, I have been running near my apartment lately. I love the fact that many owners bring their dogs to the Stone Arch Bridge and walk them along the river. So many dogs, so little time! I am partial to big dogs, but any size dog I pass, I simply can't resist the urge to look. I often wonder if I look silly doing a double-take over a dog, especially if the owner is a male. I hope they don't think I'm checking them out, but I sometimes receive strange looks in return, which leads me to believe they think I am interested in them, not their pup.
