Go back

I sniffed you

Looking for the“good boy

You were tied up outside of a Whole Foods Market wearing a red collar. You were waiting for your human, being a good boy. I was walking with my human, also being a good boy. Maybe we could be good boys together sometime?

 

When: daytime
Where:  the whole foods near that one park

 

Floppy-eared stunner

To the beautiful lab I saw walking on the seawall today, I’d like to say one thing:


BORK BORK BORK BORK BORK BORK BORK BORK BORK BORK BORK BORK BORK



When: daytime
Where:  it smells like fish there

 

Hump ‘n’ Grind

It was a bumpin’ day at the dog park. I was with my girls when I first saw you and when we sniffed each other’s buttholes, you told me that mine smelt like dead bird (what a charmer!)

We humped in the middle of the park but the bouncers pulled us apart — I think your bouncer took you home after that.  

Even though we exchanged sniffs I lost your scent! If you see this, tell me what colour my collar was.

When: daytime
Where: the most exclusive dog park in the whole city

 

Fire Hydrant Honey 

This is a total long throw but I saw you peeing on a fire hydrant the other night and I thought that your urine smelled pretty cute.

Fetch sometime?


When: nightime
Where: the fire hydrant

 

A love like this only ever comes along every 13 years. . .

I stopped in my tracks when I saw you in front of me. You were shaking off your coat in the dazzling sunshine — the intoxicating smell of mud and shit filling the air. I wagged my tail and barked at you, and you barked back. Your bark was annoying and head splitting, it swept me off my paws.  Before I could sniff your rancid beauty, I saw a squirrel and absolutely had to chase that good for nothing evil little creature why do they always torment me I’ll have him I will he’ll see and he’ll pay for what he’s done.

When I got back, you disappeared.


Let’s meet up and eat a pile of puke?

When: daytime
Where:  near the big mud puddle at my favourite park

What does it mean when doctors ask “are you sexually active?”

By: Noeka Nimmervoll, Staff Writer Content warning: References of sexual activities.  The wrinkling of paper underneath you as you sit atop the patient’s table. A cold stethoscope against your skin. The question, “are you sexually active?” These are all part of a regular doctor’s appointment, but one can be exclusionary if it’s being asked by someone who has a narrow and heteronormative understanding of sex. In the wide spectrum of human intimacy and relationships, what counts as sexually active? It seems the definition is different for everyone, and this reality is not reflected in a doctor’s checklist. For health-care to be truly inclusive, doctors should be more specific about what they mean when they ask, “are you sexually active?” Doctors ask about sexual activity ultimately with the...
