Daily Photo: Fashion victim totes FIVE dogs
November 28, 2008 · Print This Article
You might not know it from this view, but this woman was forty-something. And I realize only now I failed in the photo to capture the true number of dogs she was walking & toting, which was FIVE. Two in bags and three on the leash. She managed them all pretty well, except for one time when one dog freaked out and barked viciously (as viciously as a 10-pound creature can) at some other much less sexy obasan.
We just happened to be walking the same direction for quite some time. I was on a photo walk in Takadanobaba, looking for a good spot to shoot, which always seemed to be just in front of her. Actually, it made me uncomfortable because I thought she’d think I was following her or waiting for her to catch up.
I should have asked her why five dogs.

These are not all her dogs. She is a paid dog-walker. Also, I think a dog chomped off her left hand.

You really think a woman who dresses like that is a paid dog walker? Sorry if it was meant as sarcasm, I have no ability to detect it.

I was sarcastic. Andy is serious.

I think the dogs in bags are spares, just in case any of the ones she’s “walking” get run over. I’m amazed those terriers aren’t wearing designer coats to match her outfit.

That’s a good observation, why no jackets for the dogs as well? Maybe her one remaining shred of sanity is her firm belief that dogs should not wear clothes.
