Pass the soap

Jane, Nori and I were doing our usual noon-hour walk around the city and running some errands. On our way back to campus, this girl started calling after us.

"Is that a boy or a girl?"

She was pretty direct. She got straight to the point.

Me: Uh. Girl.

Girl: "I have a keeshond who's a boy..."

Me: "Oh, she's a Norwegian Elkhound"

Girl: Really?? She looks EXACTLY like my Keeshond. I'm looking to breed my keeshond 'coz he's not neutered.

Me: Oh. Um. If you look on Craigslist you can probably find people looking to um, find mates for their dogs... or that other one...

Jane: Kijiji

Me: Right

Jane: Yah, lots of people post listings up

Girl: *not remotely interested* She looks EXACTLY like my keeshond. He's the same colouring and shaved down *blah blah blah blah*

Me: Oh, she's not shaved down. I think she's related to keeshonds though.

Girl: No, my keeshond is shaved down. Like whew! Wow.

Me: Okay. Well. Great. *head spinning*

So we turn and start to walk away. Nori happily trotting along beside us, completely and blissfully unaware of the conversation...

Me: ew

Jane: Gross. I feel dirty.

Me: EW. Nori just got propositioned for sex!
