How Embarrassing

I was out walking my dog the other day when he farted in front of me for the second time. This time, it was more like a shart. He was doing his usual thing of marking his territory, but because he was mostly out of water by this time, he had to exert some force to tinkle. That's when he let out a little toot. There was this surprised demeanor - and I don't think I was imagining it, because he definitely jolted a little when the fart came out uninvited - and then his better judgment advised him to put down his leg and assume the squatting position.
