Kinda Long

Scene: April Hill Park, late afternoon, several dogs off leash and their owners; Gizzy, also off leash, running around in circles with the big dogs

Little Boy, about 7 years old: Hey, what kind of dog is that?

Me: She's called a corgi. Her name is Gizmo.

Boy: Oh. Don't you think she's kind of long?!?

Yes, my dear child, yes. You are wise beyond your years.
