Suspenders

Have you ever heard a conspiracy theory something along the lines of, "Your cellphone is eavesdropping  on you"? 

Well, funny story here. We were walking at False Creek this morning and came upon a dog wearing what could only be described as boots with suspenders. I'd never seen such a thing so we stopped and I asked where such a product could be found. It's been my experience that booties for my past dogs have not stayed on long; they fall off pretty easily on walks. The longer boots with straps (suspenders) look like a much more efficient system. During a short conversation the couple told me where they'd purchased the item for their dog. My phone was not involved at all in this interaction; it remained tucked in a pocket inside my jacket. We continued on our walk. 

Then, later at home, I opened my Instagram account and one of the first ads to pop up was for that exact store the couple had told me about (!) complete with a photo of the product I'd asked them about (!!)
