Hey everybody, it’s me — Sassy the Wonder Dog!
I just want y’all to know that I have really been trying to get Mama out of the house. Every single day it’s the same old excuses:
“It’s too hot.” ☀️
“It’s too cold.” 🥶
“I’m too tired.” 😴
“Let me rest.” 😒
Excuse me, ma’am? You never accept those excuses from me!
But today… I found the secret weapon.
Two words: TJ MAXX.
Oh. My. Dog.
Do you even know how much STUFF is in that place?
At first, I was nervous (strangers, you know). Mama got this big rolling thing — she calls it a “buggy” — and put her jacket in it like a little nest, then lifted me right in.
Now listen, she’s kinda short and I’ve got long legs, so there was a minute there where we both looked like a circus act.
Then the doors whooshed open and I thought, “Welp, this is it. I’m gonna die.”
And just when I was trying to be brave, some fool turned on a vacuum cleaner. 😳
But I kept saying to myself, this is for Mama.
Mama needs to walk around and see people.
Mama needs exercise.
Mama needs Sassy time.
And then… something magical happened.
The SMELLS.
Good smells. Bad smells. Food smells. Treat smells. I sat up like the brave girl I am, nose in the air, tail wagging, ready for adventure.
Every corner had a new smell and something shiny to look at.
And then people started saying, “Oh, what a good girl!”
You better believe I was proud.
Mama let me pick out a treat (I chose wisely), and the nice lady at the counter gave me another one.
So now we have a new plan:
When Mama needs exercise, we go to TJ MAXX.
Because let’s face it — a girl’s gotta sniff, strut, and shop. 💅🐶
