Not Being Special.

I met a very friendly Rottweiler cross today. Her human made a point of telling me what all the human companions of friendly dogs make a point of telling me:

‘Soft as a brush this one. She loves everybody.’

It’s as though people need to let you know you’re nothing special, a communication which, in my case, is entirely unnecessary. Being odd isn’t the same as being special.
