"Girls, I'm late for work again. Can one of you PLEASE take Brenna (our cocker spaniel) out for a walk?"
My 16 year old daughter is lost in cyber space and too busy instant messaging to hear a word that I've said.
I then look to my 14 year old daughter, a girl soooo obsessed with the Jonas Brothers, that she can't pull herself away from the 15th rebroadcast of "Camp Rock."
When I get home at 3:30AM, I invariably find Brenna with her legs crossed and a few pounds heavier. "Did anyone let you out girl?" I ask.
She looks up at me with her big brown eyes, tilts her head and says... "What do you think?
This same scene is played out almost daily. The website or TV show might change, but in the end...the poor dog never gets walked.
Yesterday, my daughters had a surprise for me. I give you "Walking the Dog" starring Brenna (who loves me) and our cat Tara (who hates me).

that is AWESOME.
Awww that is so wrong!
You should see our cat on the treadmill! Now that is something!
You are both right - it is awesome *and* wrong.
I love the cat. Looks like they get along pretty well.
You gotta love teenagers. They'll put that much effort into this, yet taking the dog for a real walk is too much.
Ah, I remember those days well...
That's the same way I walk on the treadmill,but sadly, no treats!!!!
I hope they gave her the treat eventually! What a HOOT!!!
Yes, of course we gave her the treat, we could never do that to our baby girl!
I love your blog, so when I saw that you posted a YouTube video that was made by your daughters, I was a bit disappointed.
But I decided to give you the benefit of the doubt, since you've never wasted my time in the past.
And i wasn't disappointed. That was hilarious! Keep it up!
This made me laugh out loud. I LOVE the cat's disdainful expression--"Look what those foolish canines will do for treats! Have they no pride at all?"
Clever! My favorite part was your daughter's concealed giggling. :-)
