Dog outside grocery store

[Malcolm's Dad]

I was at the grocery store this afternoon. After walking around doing my shopping my back started to ache. I sat at the bench outside to let it relax. A lady came by with a little dog. It had short legs, a long body, and a long snout. It looked like a Cairn but it had a poodle like coat. A mix of some kind. She tied it to the  bike rack. I told her I would keep an eye on it for her. When she came out this little dog started barking at her like crazy. The dog didn't like being left outside and not taken into the store with the owner. I told the owner you are being told off for leaving the dog outside. She said yes she does that. Makes me think there was part Cairn in this dog. Cairns have no problem telling you off when they are not happy.

i would trust your instinct to recognize the cairn inside any sort of improbable-looking dog.

Sounds like a Cairn to me. LOl I've been told off a time or 2 ( or a million) by Kelly.

I'm sure we all can testify as being told off by our cairns!
