one of those people

okay, so i admit it.  i have judged people who put their dogs in strollers. i was a judger.  i then realized how helpful these strollers could be, in controlling my two wild beasts when taking them to their grooming appointments.

when i get to the grooming place, all i do is unbuckle them, one at a time from their carseats and secure them in the stroller.  when driving, yuki knows from a distance that we are almost there. yuki then starts her whining and barking and then gets rocket to do the same. they are already excited in a bad way, by the time i have parked. imagine trying to get out one at time, holding on to your purse, then attach a leash, and control the pulling. multiply that times two.

then there is the nightmare of trying to enter the place. after i get past that obstacle, i have to try to talk to the groomers about how i want them groomed. i have one trying to leave the place and the other whining and trying to walk everywhere. since i have them in the stroller they can't get out. same goes with trying to pick them up. it's an even bigger nightmare since they are excited to see me and to leave. but i have to pay. imagine trying to hold on to two wild beast schnauzers, manage a purse on shoulder, and then try paying. one might say, take one at a time. i did, when it was just yuki, and i needed the stroller then too. i know i got looks as well and some comments about how cute the stroller was. but i was not trying to be cutesy. i know people weren't judging me negatively for the most part. they actually liked the stroller. but either way, i don't care if i get judged. if the stroller makes my life easier and less stressful, then so be it.
