The dog’s got an attorney? Smart dog. Now, if the salesmen are smart, they will slip on by before that viscous attorney wakes up… Much more dangerous than a hungry pitbull with a steak…
Interesting fact I learned about those vacuums sold by sales men coming to your door (they still exist, btw). If you some how manage to talk the price down by 50% of what they’re asking (just about impossible), you’re STILL getting ripped off! They don’t cost a fraction of what they ask. Which is WHY you still see these guys. If they only sell one, they still make a ton of money.
Which to fear most: the line of the Kirby vac salesman or the dog who bites you and then has his lawyer sue because you tasted bad? I sold those things once. they deserve each other.
Fuller Brush men always carried their stock in suitcases. Mom liked them because the same guy always knew when to come back to sell mom a new hair brush. Back in the days when hair brushes were made out of real hair (boar bristles and such.) .And I wouldn’t enter that yard! Not unless that lawyer is tied to his leash and the leash tied to a post pounded into the ground.

Take no chances. The lawyer might be rabid.

Maybe the dog’s mistress is just making him share his room with her inept spouse?

The bags are for all the accessories….like the vacuum powered drill and blender.

Back when I was drinking, a nice vacuum salesman sold me a $1200 vacuum (not in inflation adjusted dollars). Good hat rack.

Ah, the door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman — trying to con a sucker into buying a sucker…

I’d say the two fellows on the sidewalk are a vacuum salesman and a Fuller Brush Co. guy.
The legs sticking out of the doghouse are the (potential) lawyer. Doesn’t look particularly rabid. But, like they imply: why take chances?
