Believe it or not, there are a lot of really bad product services out there. Most don't even do as advertised, or do it to an inferior quality of likewise services. Unlike those people who get jacked, I've found a service that's both reliable and unique. You see, one night I was on a date with my girlfriend. Things lead to another, and I followed her home. That's when she broke out a program called, "Mind-Trade", that would allow two people to switch minds. She placed the helmets on our heads, and somehow swapped our minds temporarily. It was both bizarre, and unique at the same time. After I had switched back to my own body, I became a believer in this program. It's so unique, allowing two people to switch minds on command. In fact, it wasn't just humans you could swap with. You could also switch with animals, which was what I was going to do immediately. I had just purchased the program today, and purchased two corresponding mind-switch helmets.

My plan was to switch minds with my golden retriever, Johnny, for a couple of days. He was a good dog, and I wanted to reward him for being such a loyal pet. Not to mention, I've always wondered what being a lazy dog would be like. The unique thing about the device, is that it transfers the minds of the original body to it's new occupant. Meaning, that Johnny and I could pass as each other with no one being able to tell the difference. On top of that, the program was guaranteed 100% safe by Stephen Hawking, who's considered one of the smartest men around. Despite all this, the program really isn't that popular. Most people think it's just fictional, and others just think it's dangerous. However, I've heard thousands up thousands of safety reports, so I think this program is completely safe. Besides, if everyone was afraid to try something they weren't sure of, then we wouldn't have many of the amazing scientific breakthroughs we have today.

I knew it'd be a fun little trade, so I went off to the kitchen and fetched Johnny. The dog let out a happy bark as I entered the kitchen, as I immediately gave the little dog a pet on the head. The happy golden-furred dog wagged his tail, and barked excitedly. Unbeknownst to him, I had a much bigger reward for him then a pat on the head. I lead him to the living room, and had him sit down in front of the TV screen. This was going to be fun, I could tell! Johnny waited patiently, as I turned on the TV and set it to the Mind-Trade program. I took out two tiara-looking silver helmets, and placed one Johnny's head. He didn't really seem to be bothered by it, then again nothing bothers Johnny. I placed the other helmet on my head, and prepared to turn on the program.

Taking my remote control, I pressed "OK" on the swapping menu, and immediately everything went black. I remember the first time this happened with my girlfriend, I was completely panicked by it! However, since I had done this before, I was no longer frightened by the scenario. My eyes fluttered for a while, as my body stood still and unresponsive. After what I could assume was a few minutes, I was suddenly sitting on the floor. I was perched on my hind legs, and my front legs were spread out in front of me. My body was covered with fluffy warm fur, and I felt a fur-covered tail wriggle around on my backside. My tiny black nose picked up new scents, as I picked up extremely loud sounds from the world around me. My eyesight wasn't black and white, that was all but a stereotype. The world was grainy, and the colors were off, I lacked any sort of clarity. It worked, I had swapped bodies with Johnny!

I stood up on all four legs, as I heard a voice shout, "I didn't think this was possible!" I turned my head towards who was astonished by the trading of our forms. My tongue flopped out from my mouth, as I excitedly wagged my tail. I wandered over to my new master, as he looked at me in surprise. "I don't know what to say, except thank you, master!" He moved his hand towards me, and immediately scratched behind my ear. My whole body was quickly excited by this, and I let out happy little bark. "This temporary trade is going to be fun, mas--- I mean, boy!" I barked in agreement, as Johnny stood up. He took a few new steps on his feet, in an attempt to get used to the sensation of walking on two legs. I decided to take some time to get used to my new body as well, this was definitely going to be a learning experience.

I took some steps on four legs, trying to get used to my new body moves. My fingers were completely missing, replaced with the cumbersome paws of a common canine. My ears seemed to flop every which way with each step I take, and I kept getting distracted by some strange new smell. "I know how we can some good practice for our new bodies!" Shouted Johnny, "Let's go for a walk!" I barked in agreement, it sounded like a great idea! Johnny walked over to the kitchen, and I followed behind him. My paw-pads rubbed against the carpet with each step I took, it was a bizarre sensation that was going to take some getting used to! As Johnny went to grab my leash, my excitement began to swell to an insane degree. I was already ecstatic about the whole situation, but since I gained Johnny goofy canine sensibilities, I was even more wound-up!

My excitement continued to build, as I saw Johnny grab the leash and bring it over to me. I sat my hairy butt down, as Johnny latched the leash onto my collar. "Alright, you ready for a walk, boy?" Asked Johnny, as he stood up. I replied with a "Woof!", to which he nodded his head. I followed my new master to the door, as he quickly turned the latch. He opened the door, and suddenly my nostrils were aflame with an all-out assault of new scents! It was surprising how many new smells flowed into my tiny black nose, it was almost like sensory overload! I took a step outside, and felt the wind brush against my fur. It was a nice sensation, it only helped heighten my ever-growing excitement. I start trotting along on all fours, sniffing the air with each step. Likewise, Johnny was experiencing the world in a whole new way as well.

He marvelled at how amazing everything looked in color, as he twitched his newfound fingers. His less-sensitive nose and ears took him by surprise, but he quickly adjusted to his decreased senses. We walked along the avenue, we never thought we'd experience something like this! This was unique situation in our lives, something like this would've been impossible many years ago! Now that we've used this technology, I could feel our bond growing even stronger then before. We continued down the street, as I curiously smelt everything I came across. My rough paw-pads clipped against the hard sidewalk, with each step I took. I heard kids playing, despite the fact that none were in sight. My new hearing helped me well, it was as if I could anticipate anything with these big floppy ears! The movement of my four legs was beginning to feel natural to me, it was as if I was meant to strut along like this.

As we walked along, we eventually happened across a fire-hydrant. Was I really going to do this? It seemed embarrassing and weird, then again I am in a dog's body. I wandered over to the fire-hydrant, as Johnny held on tight to the leash as I dragged him along. I reached the fire-hydrant and gave it a big old sniff. I lifted my leg up, as a familiar sensation came over me. I began to relieve myself, as Johnny cringed. "I really used to that? Wow, it seems weirder from this vantage point!" After I finished my business, I spotted something out of the corner of my eye. My tongue drooped out from my big canine muzzle, as I spotted another fellow dog in the distance. My nose was undoubtedly excited by the scent of another mutt, and I quickly ran towards it. I pulled Johnny along with the leash, similar to what Johnny would do before our roles were reversed.

The dog was a big fluffy ol' sheepdog, that was just minding it's own business. It's owner didn't pay me any attention, as I came barrelling up to the sheepdog. We began sniffing each other to an insane degree, as we catalogued each other scents. At one point, the sheepdog took a big whiff of my behind. It felt awkward, but I couldn't help but join in on the fun! I gave the sheepdog's butt a could sniff in return, to which Johnny could help but laugh slightly at the weird experience. He was seeing things from a whole new vantage point, and he couldn't but find this role-reversal stuff hilarious. After the sheepdog and I finished sniffing each other, Johnny pulled me away and we continued our jaunt across the street. After an hour, we arrived back at the home. Johnny opened the door, and I quickly barreled back inside my abode. Johnny and I were feeling extremely fulfilled after today's events, truly we had experienced something every dog owner could only dream of.

"Thanks for this opportunity!" Said the former dog as he gave me a firm pat on the rump, "I'll never forget this!" I nodded in agreement, as my new master stood up abruptly. "Now, let's do something really fun! Roll over onto your back!"  Ooh, I knew what was about to happen! I was about to get a belly-rub, something that any dog would consider a lot of fun. I rolled over onto my back, with my legs sticking out and my tongue flopped back almost touching the carpet. Johnny walked up to me, and placed his hand across my hairy stomach. Then, he began to firmly scratch my bell, to which my tail began waving uncontrollably. I felt like I was in heaven, how could a simple belly-scratch be so exciting to a dog?  As he continued to rub his hand in my fur, I began to think of how awesome this product is!

Never before had I felt so excited and so energetic, I was downright happy about this trade! It was all thanks to this strange program, and these weird looking helmets. Even though this swap was only going to last two days, I'd savor every minute of it. I'd probably swap with Ronny again later down the line, it was just too much fun not to make this an occasional event. After Johnny finished scratching my belly, he stood up and walked over to the DVD rack. "How about a good ol' classic boy?" I barked in response. "Let's watch our favorite, "The Original Shaggy Dog". It seems fairly appropriate at this point." I flipped my body back onto my stomach, and stood up on all four legs. I wandered over to the foot of the couch, downright excited about watching this film.

Johnny and I would normally watch this film once a year, and now we were watching it from completely different angles. Now I was the dog at my master's side, a gentle and loyal canine having fun with his master. My tail impatiently waved back and forth, as Johnny popped in the DVD. After setting it up, he sat down on the couch and relaxed in his borrowed form. Before the movie began, he reached his hand down and started petting me on the head. I reached my tongue up, and goofily licked his hand. He laughed at this response, and smiled at my goofy demeanor. He started up the movie, and we both stood at attention. This movie was perfect, it's a film that goes to show that a man becoming a dog can truly be a eye-opening experience.

I've actually made a fair amount of dog TFs, mainly because of all the unique ideas I come up with for them. Enjoy, also check out my blog for more animal TF stories:
