Dog And I
“There it was, on channel seven, a dog that had not been seen since shortly after Jim Morrison took up permanent residence in Paris, since Pierre and Margaret were together and having Christmas babies, since it seemed the entire world, not just this particular dog breed, had long and silky hair.
An Afghan.
It was riding in the back seat of something called an Optra, a new Chevrolet that is being flogged as “sleek and stylish,” and the dog, presumably, had been placed in the commercial to demonst...rate just that—as well as to make a corny joke about sunroofs and the tangled, windblown hair that some of us, long, long ago, once enjoyed.
I sat there wondering where they found the dog. I have not seen an Afghan since, oh, around 1975, when the street we lived on in Toronto had five and they seemed as momentarily fashionable as leisure suits and quadraphonic sound. Where did they all go?
Dogs were fashion accessories long before Paris Hilton went in search of a Chihuahua small enough to fit in her makeup kit.MoreLess
