Ask Molly

Greetings from me, Molly,

Today's "Ask Molly" letter comes  from  Antioch, California. Carlos Garcia asks:

What are your feelings about the leash law?

Thanks in advance for your speedy reply. My human and I have differing oppions on the subject, and we'll be going for a walk in forty-five minutes.

Sincerely,

Carlos

I am vehemently opposed to leashes. They prevent dogs from chasing things, running into the road, and eating assorted delicacies (garbage, dead animals, etc.) that we find on our walks.  I have tried to explain this to my human, but she steadfastly refuses to understand my position. Humans can be very stubborn.

Regards,

Molly 

Human's note: The opinions stated by my overachieving collie do not necessarily reflect those of her human/owner. Many unpleasant "incidents" have been prevented by a leash.

This question comes from Seattle Washington, Carmen Melaport asks:

Molly, is it true you're having a book signing? I thought only humans can sign books. And where can I buy The Molly Chronicles?  I live too far away to come to your book signing.

Carmen

Carmen thank you for your excellent question. You can buy The Molly Chronicles on Amazon.com. Here's the link
Molly

You're correct  - it is very hard for a dog to write. I have spent many hours perfecting my penmanship. And my human will probably insist on signing the books and hogging all the glory to herself (no disrespect intended to pigs.)

The book signing is scheduled for May 16th 2015 from 10 am. to 2 pm. at Christ the Lord Episcopal Church 592 Tennent Avenue in Pinole CA. There will be a Noah's Ark Festival which will include presentations about birds, reptiles and raptors (birds like hawks, which you shouldn't chase - believe me.) So it will be a lot of fun. There will also be dogs available for adoption. Unfortunately the even is for human visitors only. I get to come because I'm one of the participants.
I will bring cookies and liver snacks.

Love,
Molly

Happy Monday to all of you dogs and humans in Internetland.  For those who don't know me, I'm Molly, and each Monday I'll be answering your questions. Inquiring minds want to know. Today's question comes from Judy Greenwald who writes:
     Dear Molly,
I notice that you have kept a svelte figure over the years. Do you have any good tips for me? I should mention that I am a human and not a dog.

   Dear Judy,
In order to stay fit and lovely, you need exercise. I suggest you get a dog. A dog with a good strong work ethic, like a Border Collie, Australian Shepherd, Jack Russell. Your dog will make sure that you get a daily walk. He/she will insist on it and will whine, jump on your stomach and lick your face until you get out there. That is how I keep my human healthy - no easy task, believe me.

   Licks and Tail Wags,
   Molly
