The Dog Watcher

On the first day one of my friends got a new dog they played a fun game with it where they threw its food bit by bit across the room; it would fetch the food, and then eat it. The next night it wouldn't eat, so they played the game again. And again every night for the next 15 years. I was thinking about that today when the dog I'm watching peed on the kitchen floor. "At least I don't have to throw it's food across the room," I thought. And at least the dog peed on the tile floor instead of the rug. Then I stood up to take the dog out and realized that it had also peed all over the shoe I was wearing when I walked in, it must have happened when it was jumping on me. At least they're waterproof shoes.
