Bienvenido a la Casa Nueva

The pet dog at my new house, like the gentleman that he was, greeted me by stealing and trying to eat one of my sandals,  and an hour later, humping me a few times. Which I wasn't fully aware of...I thought he was just grabbing hold of my right leg to try to attack me. I'm so naive. Of course, this wasn't the first time that I was unaware of dogs' sexual intentions - in Viña, I saw one dog chasing another dog and I said "Awwww, how cute, they're playing tag!" And then Cassie had to point out to me that this was not playground play, but rather, the dog that was doing the chasing was basically trying to rape the other dog. 

So, pop quiz: Who mistakes rape for an innocent game of tag? Answer: I do.

Well, you learn something new every day.
