Conversations With Bud
Bud: I was watching the Westminster Canine Extravaganza last night. I have a HUGE bone to pick with you.
Me: So what else is new?
Bud: I can't believe I'm not at the winner's podium as the crème de là crème of the canine cusp.
Me: Are you kidding? I'm not sure you're a real Shih-Tzu anymore. Besides, did you happen to notice how well behaved those canines were?
Bud: Yes. Those humans were extremely well-trained.
Me: I'll admit those humans were more patient than me...but those canines go to obedience classes, grooming sessions, and are on strict diets every single day of their lives. Not a free minute there.
Bud: Really?
Me: Yep.
Bud: Think we'll watch a little Judge Judy tonight.
The oldest known breed is likely the Saluki, originally trained by Egyptians to help them track game.
Guess you won't win.
