Pet Rod

Rod is a dog who knows what he wants. And what he wants is for you to pet him.

Your first mistake will be making eye contact.

Your second mistake will be addressing Rod.

Your final mistake will be your first pet.

After this, you will engage in an endless petting and guilting cycle.

Guests are not excused from this cycle.

Enjoy your Saturday full of Rod pets!

Car Ride Rod

Rod definitely has a seating preference while in the car.

It is the front seat.

Window down? Even better!

When placed in the backseat, he seems to think some sort of mistake has been made.

Once his proper seating arrangement has been restored, he is quite pleased.

All is well in the front seat.
