Maybe it's from watching the movie Lady and The Tramp (I just looked it up on IMDB and it's from 1955!? That's crazy, I didn't realize it was so old) and the street dog is kinda mangy looking with his outline, a little scruffy looking. So when I see that on a dog, they look like a cartoon to me, and I think it's cute.
It was raining today so most of the strays outside were soaking wet, which was sad, but anyways, I go and buy some food from a bakery to take back to work. I had visited some schools today and did some observations, and I was grabbing lunch on my way back to the NIE.
I see this dog as I cross the street, don't really think nothing of it, until about 2 blocks later I look back and see he's following me. I got some stuff in a plastic bag from a bakery so he knows I have food.
He follows me all the way down a pathway next to a street bridge, and even follows me across a pedestrian bridge across a river. I wanted to give the poor little pup some food but knew I shouldn't and didn't want to be feeding strays in front of Armenians as I don't think it's something acceptable here, but I figured if he made it across the bridge and was still there then I might sneak him some.
The dog follows me onto the bridge, but then gets distracted by the water, or something in the water, I don't know. But I turn left once I get off the bridge and I look back after a while and the dog has gotten across the bridge, but he goes straight up the main street, trying to find me, and by then I'm inside so I feel a little sad I didn't give him any food.
Cute dog.
