Transcript

She's huge. A formal introduction to Pretzel. Don't let this angle fool you. She is a giant. This is how tall she is. I've had Pretzel for three and a half months. She is five and a half months old. I would normally not ever add half a month to that, but I feel like it's crucial to her size. I like to bring her on patios of restaurants that allow dogs, and I know a lot of people have a lot of opinions about that. But I don't let her walk on the ground of the restaurant. So this is how I carry her through restaurants. Also a backpack. A backpack baby. Everyone's getting married, having babies. I'm tier. Clearly best. Swamped. Sometimes I'm older like a lamb. Can I tell you it's March and she was born in October? Like people don't believe me. I see them.
