Talk to my dog. He handles his own paperwork. He’s in the backyard. Don’t get too close. Don’t cross the circle where the grass is worn down.

... Don’t cross the circle where the grass is worn down.

Maybe I'm "assuming", but do you keep a dog on a rope or chain? Why have a dog like that? It is cruel and inhumane.

I have a Dalmation (named Spot, of course). He is hyper and barky, but he is my dog. He sleeps in the house and keeps it safe. I do not understand why anyone would like to keep a dog tethered and ready to wrench his neck when challenged by noise or whatever. Do you know anything about dogs, or just want to say you own one?

He is NOT your pet, if you keep him tethered. He is just a sad animal in need! He's a dog, so he will love you despite your ignorance! Put up a fence and let your dog free to roam and keep his domain safe for you and he!
