DOGS

I'd like to design a dog bouquet.
In New York, dogs get walked in bunches.
And nobody seems to consider the aesthetics.
Size.
Shape.
Color.
Texture.
There's so much to work with.
The leashes are the stems.
Each with its own unique blossom.
A short, delicate curly white poodle.
Tucked under the chin of a sleek golden retriever.
The shadings and folds of a pudgy boxer.
The long legs of a short-haired grey weimaraner.
A low-lying copper-colored dachshund.
And one really tall head to top the arrangement.
The dog walker.
