Spoiled dogs
Lots of dogs this week… Yesterday I went to a dog cafe in Ebisu. I’ve never heard about such a place before and I was curious to see what it was like. They had menus for both dogs and "humans"; the food looked the same but contained different ingredients (hopefully). A long-haired black dachshund in a striped shirt and a jeans jacket had a piece of cheesecake on the floor close to my chair.
The café had a small bath tub where you could wash your dog’s paws before lunch or dinner. There were hooks on the wall for bad dogs to be leached to but good dogs could walk around without their leach and sniff around in the café.
I’m not a dog owner myself (I’m actually pretty scared of dogs), but the café visit was a fun experience. It made me realize that to some people dogs must mean everything, that’s why they are willing to spoil them like crazy.
