I can only conclude that human feet are poorly designed.
My dear human has been complaining about how she bought herself a new pair of supposedly robust and high quality hiking shoes less than a year ago and the soles are now wearing out and the uppers coming apart at the seams.
And she says it's the fault of a certain adorable young wire-haired fox terrier.
Apparently my "high exercise demands" are to blame.
Well I would like to point out that my own perfectly formed paws have had no need of expensive footwear, and can easily cope with longer and longer daily walks in all conditions, absolutely, no problem at all.
Perhaps Gail should try going barefoot?
