I don't get it

[terrie]

Zeus doesn't have much of a tail, just a two inch stubby thing. I'm glad he was docked, because he has enough health issues without a tail prone to breaking. But kids are, for some reason, fascinated by that stub. I swear, 50% of the kids who see him in the park and come over to pet him have to grab his tail. It honestly baffles me. He doesn't care, but you'd think more parents would worry about their kids putting hands on a dog's rear end.
