… and fed?
Dogs and Cheetahs are kind of at opposite ends of the energy management spectrum. I can see a dog wondering why their buddy has to take a snack after running only a short distance. It is cool that the creatures can get along
It’s a life of Milk-Bones and Cheetos, my friend. /s
Will the dog really care that their buddy has to get a snack after running for a short distance? It likely means they’re going to get a treat too, and that’s what’s important to the canine mind.
Besides, even though the dogs aren’t going to be as fast as the cheetah, the cheetah’s sprinting could trigger the dog’s zoomies and that’s often fun for a dog (based on my girlfriend’s dogs.)
sounds like you may have had some of those sesh what lead to some… interesting munchies.
good times!
btw: green Milk-Bones are kinda -
some weird-ass biscuits with a Mountain Dew and flamin’ hot Cheetos. sometimes there are no Cheetos.
don’t ask.
Cheetahs and greyhounds are where the Cat and Dog kingdoms overlap.
Oh, the squee-ness!

Also: TFW you see a creature who is best in the world at something, doing that thing…
Jaysus, that’s beautiful.
