A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

I'd say a dog would still go to predictable places eg. they'd go for a walk on their usual route (maybe a bit larger).
I often let my dog choose where we're walking and he takes it as an opportunity to update all the places he knows in town, so we end up walking a 5k loop, it's just more chaotic than when I'm leading.
I had a Husky. For me it would have been the random path of deer, rabbits, and random people's driveways. He had no sense of direction, and cared not for walking norms.
