[nagdu] stunt double

[Julie J]

I was talking about this the other day with my husband.  I was asking him 
the likelihood that anyone would notice if I took Belle to work with me 
instead of Monty.
He said he thought the odds were very slim, after all both dogs are 
black...well mostly.  Belle is quite a bit gray these days.
When I asked him about the fact that she is about 3 inches shorter, 15 
pounds lighter, has a totally different body type, longer hair with ruffles 
and a very long tail compared with Monty's docked tail, he didn't seem to 
think anyone would notice any of that.
He's probably right, but some nutty part of me would like to do it just to 
find out. *smile*  I won't though because Belle would not find it amusing.
