Two people, 2 dogs, not quite enough legs

2 dogs

It is an interesting story. One that many people find romantic, others find it freaky.

Imagine if you can, two young people meet and decide they quite like each other. The relationship grows and they become serious. There is nothing unusual there at the end of the day. The unusual piece comes when they start talking about the pets they own.

It doesn’t take long for them to realise they both own dogs, one more thing in common on top of everything they have already discovered about each other. One of them mentions to the other, in passing, that the dog they own only has three legs. You can imagine the surprise on the faces when the other turns and says “mine too!”

Now if you think that is freaky enough, it gets better.

Once the shock of each having a three legged dog wears off, they starting talking more about the dogs. The big shock comes when they discuss which leg is missing. Yes you guessed it, the dogs are both missing the same leg. Weird eh?

Remember that before these two people met they had no idea they both owned dogs, let alone three legged dogs. No one had told them, not even their friends.

The dogs lost their legs for different reason and at different ages of life but try telling the dogs that they are disabled. They don’t believe you. They live full and happy lives.

Just as having three legs is permanent, so to it appears is their owners’ ‘well balanced’ relationship. Can you imagine the looks and comments they get when walking both dogs together? It certainly makes for an interesting view but proves a number of things. Dogs can live a very happy, fully functioning life with only three legs and amongst other things, some relationships are just meant to be.

Yes it is a bit of a gooey story, but sometimes they just need to be told.
