Lauren Von Dogs Now, every time I walk past a dog, no matter how ugly or smelly it is, I find myself saying that I want it, or describing to whomever is nearby how cute the dog is, in that ridiculous tone you reserve for speaking to a babies. I collect photographs of other people’s dogs that I see looking out onto the street from their homes. Sometimes I ask dog walkers in the park if I can borrow their dog and pretend it is mine. One of the dog walkers told me that she was in fact borrowing her dog. She told me of a place in the park for abandoned dogs. I paid 20 ₏ for a year and now I can walk any of the dogs there during lunch time. Except on Sundays. This picture is of two dogs at a shop where they sell french fries. I have never seen the shop open. The first five or so times I went past the shop there was only one dog at a time. I thought it was the same dog. Then this last time, I saw that there were two dogs; that look the same.
