Best Friends Animals or HUMAN

I just struggled to go on a walk
doc says before you die
gain your stamina
LOL

I passed by an extremely fair skinned couple
they looked away to the other side
even though I'm not black.

I was struggling
pulling/dragging my legs slowly

The three dogs left them and came to me
and licked my feet

They sighed couldn't speak
I smiled and patted them
they licked my palms

The couple was amazed
but felt no shame
as their dogs had replaced them

Who is more human
can you spell it out to me

...I sometimes wish people were more like dogs. The world might be a better place.
.hm..on second thought, are you sure they weren't just tasting you to see if you'd make a good meal?

that was it, they were taking a lesson from watching Shark Week, using their mouth to taste you to see if you were edible!
Is he sweet enough? ~ Geez.
