I am a vegan. I love to volunteer at my local community garden. Have two dogs and cat. I am a student at a community college. I am hoping to be a nurse one day.
Speaker 2
I am athletic. My favorite drink is coffee. I live in the big city. I am an artist. I have a dog.
Speaker 1
I live in Virginia. I have two dogs and one cat. My dogs are named Skippy and Jetta. My cat is named Foster. I bake brownies.
Speaker 2
I go for runs. I have a dog named Java.
Speaker 1
Hi. How are you today?
Speaker 2
Tired. Just came back from my run. How about you?
Speaker 1
Finer than a frog hair split four ways. Have a good run?
Speaker 2
Hah! Haven't heard that one yet. Almost spit out my drink..
Speaker 1
Backwoods virginia slang for you.
Speaker 2
I guess so. Anyways, my dog chased a frisbee halfway across the park..
Speaker 1
I know how it is. I have two dogs and one cat. It gets interesting.
Speaker 2
That sounds hectic. What are their names?.
Speaker 1
Skippy and jetta for the dogs and the cat is foster. What's your dog's name.
Speaker 2
The big goofball in question is named java. After what he has to be drinking..
Speaker 1
Hey the pup has taste.
Speaker 2
Well, at least I know where all my pick up and go went..
Speaker 1
Right. My pets like to steal brownies.
Speaker 2
What kind? Java would get in so much trouble. Mint chocolate is not for doggos.
Speaker 1
Chocolate chip. Once the cat knocked a whole pan one the floor for all.
Speaker 2
So evil. Well, I've got to go pick up groceries. Talk to you later. ^^.

Speaker 1
I just baked the most amazing pan of brownies and I can see my pets already planning how to get it. 
Speaker 2
Uh oh, better be careful with all that chocolate!
Speaker 1
I know, it can be so bad for them. But for some reason they love it... I dont understand why?
Speaker 2
Real answer, they didnt evolve around it so they dont know. My answer, no one can resist chocolate!
Speaker 1
The older I have become, the more I have grown to like chocolate. I didn't like it when I was younger, really? What is your favourite chocolate?
Speaker 2
Any chocolate with caramel inside i cannot turn away from ha. Oh did you add anything to your brownies?
Speaker 1
I didn't this time. Next time, I will definitely. Caramel is so nice with chocolate, but I find that it can be super rich sometimes and sickly.
Speaker 2
Yeah, there is definitely a balance that needs to be worked out.
Speaker 1
It is so easy to over-caramel. But I love it. It really is a Catch-22. With your running, do you do it because you feel guilty eating chocolate?
Speaker 2
Haha no. Just like caramel in chocolate i keep a good balance with my exercise and eating habits.
Speaker 1
That is probably the best thing, keeping a good balance. How far do you run, usually? I struggle to run 5km.
Speaker 2
I try to do 3 in the morning and 5mi at night if i have the time.

Speaker 1
How is your dog doing?
Speaker 2
My dog is doing good. She is a 3 year old Goldendoodle. What kinds of dogs do you have?
Speaker 1
That's great! I have two, Skippy is a Golden Retriever and Jetta is a Labrador. If Skippy didn't have much longer fur you would think they're siblings! Did you get Java as a puppy?
Speaker 2
Oh those are wonderful breeds. I used to have a gold retriever! I adopted Java when she was only 1 month old. We got her from the Amish country in PA. 
Speaker 1
I would love to see your Goldendoodle one day. I don't think I've ever seen one in person, only on photos. They look so adorable! Maybe we could go on a run together one day and bring the dogs.
Speaker 2
They get super fluffy. I think it would be a great idea to go for a run with them. Good exercise for them and good exercise for use. 
Speaker 1
That's true. Jetta is almost 10 years old now so depending on how long of a run we go for I might just keep her at home. She's still getting as excited as a puppy when we go for walks, but I think a long run would be too much for her now.
Speaker 2
I agree. With the hot temperature, we will have to bring a dog bowl to make sure they stay hydrated.  
Speaker 1
That's a good idea, and I might bake some brownies for us, for after the run! I could even put some caramel swirls on top for you.
Speaker 2
I would love to have some brownies. I like to eat the middle of the brownies, since the edge of the pan always has a harder edge. 
Speaker 1
That's perfect since I like the harder bits on the edges a little bit more! Maybe we can get some coffee and sit down somewhere with the brownies after the run. I'll also bring some treats for the dogs. What kind of treat does your dog like?
Speaker 2
That works out perfectly! I think there will be a picnic table around. My dog likes any kind of treat that has a peanut butter flavor. How about your dog?

Speaker 1
How is Java doing? 
Speaker 2
Java is going great…. In lala land after his meal! What about your furry family?
Speaker 1
The dogs are wonderful, but my cat seems a little sad.  She hurt her front paw and is limping when she walks.  I'm not sure if I should take her to the vet or not. 
Speaker 2
Oh boy! I wouldn’t wait too long. If it doesn’t go away soon just take her to the vet… better safe than sorry
Speaker 1
I know you're right, but sometimes those vet bills can be outrageous.  I think I'll give it a couple of more days to see if she gets better on her own.  You been out on any runs lately? 
Speaker 2
I totally agree… thos enormous bills are what keep me from getting another pet. Well, I hope she bounces back soon :) And yes, I just came back from a run half hour ago. Java tagged along happily which is why he was ready to eat and snooze soon as we got back lol
Speaker 1
It must be nice to be able to take Java with you when you run. My dogs just want to stop and sniff EVERYTHING when I take them out with me.  I can't get them to pay attention and run along beside me.  But I'm not much of a runner anyway.  I do enjoy taking them for walks. 
Speaker 2
By the way when are we going for that run, or brisk walk if you prefer, with the doggies? Actually I’m in it for the brownies you promised to bring ;) We’ll keep it short so Jetta can join too!
Speaker 1
That's right, we need to set a date.  I just made a big batch of brownies last night.  They turned out really soft and gooey, just the way you like them. Do you want to meet up at the beach? I do love the ocean.
Speaker 2
Woohoo… Beach would be purrrfect! Don’t forget to bring a bowl for water to keep the kiddos hydrated.
Speaker 1
That's a good reminder, about the water.  Jetta will definitely need water breaks.  I'll even try to find some peanut butter treats for the doggies, so they can have a snack while we enjoy our brownies.  Want to meet up Saturday afternoon?
Speaker 2
Saturday afternoon it is! Since you’re taking care of doggie treats, I’m going to make some killer sandwiches for us and make it a picnic!

Speaker 1
My cat is limping really badly now so I will take her to the vet this afternoon.
Speaker 2
oh no! How long has she been acting sick for?
Speaker 1
It started yesterday morning...not sure what she did. It's gotten worse!
Speaker 2
that's awful.  I hope she'll be okay.  I had a cat in the past that we thought was very sick but she suddenly got better the next day, so don't lose hope.
Speaker 1
I don't think it's anything too major. It's just always sad when our fur babies are hurt. Do you have any plans this afternoon.
Speaker 2
I'm probably going to go for a run with my dog and just relax other than that.  What about you?
Speaker 1
That sounds nice....I'm jealous. Probably try to get Foster in today before I head to work. 
Speaker 2
good idea.  What do you do for work?
Speaker 1
I'm a nanny to 7 amazing kids! Their father is a bit of a stickler...very strict navy submarine captain. He actually has a different whistle for each of them! I refused to have any part of it. 
Speaker 2
wow, that sounds like something out of a movie haha.  What do you usually do with them?
Speaker 1
It truly seemed like it at first! But I think I'm winning them all over. We do all sorts of things! Recently, we did some hiking in the mountains. We discovered we all share a love and talent for music of all things!
Speaker 2
that's amazing! have you taught them any songs?
