Glamour, high fashion, and the absolute, soul-crushing reality of owning a 5 month old Sheepadoodle. 💅💩
My daughter and I decided to treat Jasper to a bit of high society with a trip to John Lewis. The vision in my head was picture-perfect: a dapper, fluffy young pup strutting gracefully through the aisles, turning heads, and proving to the world that he’s a cultured gentleman.
Jasper had a vastly different vision.
He marched into the beauty hall like he owned the joint, completely unfazed by the glowing counters and the scent of money in the air. He bypassed Tom Ford, gave Jo Malone a dismissive glance, and trotted directly toward the high-rollers: Chanel and Dior.
He stopped. He sniffed the air. And then, right on the polished floor between the Chanel No. 5 and the Dior Sauvage, Jasper dropped into a full, unapologetic squat.
Why buy luxury when you can contribute your own signature scent?
Before I could process the mortification, an impeccably turned-out assistant glided over and announced: "Excuse me... your dog has just relieved himself next to the Eau de Parfum."
While I was down on my hands and knees with a poo bag, Jasper decided his work in high fashion was done. Seeking any kind of refuge, we swiftly legged it toward the children’s department, where we found peak back-to-school shoe queue chaos. Naturally, right in front of a dozen wide-eyed parents and children, Jasper squatted for an encore: a massive victory wee.
A double-header. A complete, multi-story sensory experience.
Jasper gives Chanel a solid 2/10 and thinks the kids' section has great acoustics. We set a new world record for the fastest exit out of a department store.
We are currently laying low in our own dog-friendly shop, where the dog fragrance is rated pretty good, and there is zero judgment for pups who just can’t resist showing off!
Drop your most embarrassing public puppy moments in the comments so I know I’m not the only one living in a comedy sketch! 👇😂
