I must really be a leader.
Because today my blog has 1000 followers.
One thousand dogs, and people – and cats – and a few other animals following me.
Of course, some of them say they’re following me but they’re not.
Well, they sort of are.
But if they were really following me wouldn’t I have at least one thousand people and animals reading my posts every day?
And I don’t.
I guess a follower or two dropped off somewhere along the wayside.
.
***
Hey, I know a way to get all those followers following me.
I’ll give a guided tour of my trails.
And invite all of my followers to come along.
I’m sure they’ll all show up for that.
Wouldn’t that be cool?
One thousand people and animals all following along on my trails.
I’m setting the date for tomorrow.
So come on over and get in line.
The first one here gets to step in right behind me.
And I’ll show you what it’s like to follow the leader.

Can’t wait. Make sure there is no thunder on that date.

It’s thundering right now so I can’t go out and scout my trails for the best route.

Congrats Bongo! I bet hitting 1,000 follows makes you feel warm and fuzzy! I’m still waiting for mine to happen. 🙂
PS – You are so darn cute!!

Ooh thanks Paws2smile. If you keep plugging away you’ll eventually get that many follows. It’s taken me a little over three years to get there.

I love playing follow the leader. Usually, I play it with Mom. She calls it being a good girl. 1,000 followers is a lot! Congratulations!
Love and licks,

Awww, Bongo, if you could be the leader of all doggies, kitties, other pets and hooomans – it would be surely a better world in which I’d like to live!
Bongo

Kolytyi, I’m working on leading everybody. But they have to show up at my trails first. My person won’t give me a travel allowance.

I’m sure your a great trail guide and we would love to have you take us on your trails. Unfortunately we can’t get out there this year, and Aspen is too young and he can’t walk very long. Even though he’s getting so big he is not really steady on his feet enough for hills and rock. You keep that in mind and maybe were will take you up on it later.
