Perhaps the dog was enabled in snatching the desert, because the dog was looking at her using the "male gaze" and she tuned it out? Behold:

9. So what you are saying is: Ignore others, it is easy. huh. Have you tried that in real life?
Like if a man looks at you, just ignore it? Easy peasy.

I do it all the time
All of us do. It wasn't so easy when I was 4, 10, and 12 though. At my age it's now less common and I'm long used to tuning it out....

It would be against the odds, I know. These things are all unlikely:
1. That she would have "tuned it out" if the dog had been giving her the male gaze.
2. That a dog would find her attractive enough to merit the "male gaze", although I am on the fence on this one...I have seen them roll in manure on the farm.
3. That she ignores men looking at her "that way" all the time.
Somehow I doubt the whole of the "tart" story too.
