At this fluffy house, we are obsessed with The Walking Dead.
Well, no; that’s an incorrect statement. Nick and I are obsessed with The Walking Dead, Mauja is terrified of the noises, and Atka just doesn’t care as long as he’s getting some snuggles.
We didn’t start watching when the show first aired. Honestly, I’m not a fan of gore or any sort of grossness. I’d much prefer comedies over zombie guts. One night, Nick suggested watching The Walking Dead and second-glass-of-wine Kelsie was on board.
We were hooked. We spent many evenings curled up on the couch watching episode after episode of the show so we could catch up before the new season started. Eventually, we found ourselves discussing the zombie apocalypse and if we would survive.
Without a second thought I said, “We’d be one of the first to die.”
This piqued Nick’s interest enough to delve deeper into the conversation. Why would we be one of the first to die?
Because we have two Great Pyrenees.
Two Great Pyrenees who don’t know how to keep quiet.
There is always one thing that draws zombies near – sound. Mauja and Atka, being excellent guard dogs, would give away our location.
They’d hear a creak in the floor…
BARK.
A zombie would moan in the distance…
BARK.
Not to mention every sketchy-looking leaf that floats past…
BARK BARK BARK.
Unless we locked ourselves in a very high building, I don’t see how we’d make it. Even if we did that, we’d have a plethora of zombies waiting below our residence. That would make getting out to go on runs for food extremely difficult.
Perhaps I should start working on our zombie apocalypse survival plan… You know – just in case 😉
Any advice? How would you survive a zombie apocalypse?
Mom’s niece is going to be our protector. She’s up on all things zombie and she will help us deal with the barking challenge.
LOL! I love these sort of posts so much! I’m not sure if we’d survive either! Phoenix likes to bark, too!
I love the Walking Dead!! The rest of my family could take it or leave it. However we do have detailed conversations about what we would do. Top plan is to take over a Sam’s Club or a Costco! They have supplies plus would be easy to keep secure once you have taken it. Unfortunately I think my chihuahua tribe would be zombie hors de vors. They bark WAY to much.
