Mister and me passed through a footrace and swam and went way the hell and back to tow sales and got stuck in a maze of buildings all crazy-fenced to inhibit illicit travel and saw a dude who jumped at the sight of mister and then realaxed  seeing us both wagging and smiling and he said it's a cultural thing.  and then at the sale some old gray maned lioness fretted and poofed over Mister too and i said if he breaks anything i'll pay she dint care, it's a cultural thing. then a woeman turned aghast and flabbergasted seeing Mister so flagrantly sashayingly free on 53rd st. and i waved and said wom mister that's the very picture of flabbergastation, she didn't even notice me. but i got some cool stuff including an xmas ornament of a hooman headed bird and A Little Life  by Hanya Yanagihara which is fun to say and i read her The People in the Trees. 
so there is dog prejudice out there but i s'pose it could be worse.
