Dudious' comments reminded me of a coupla dog-related quotes:
"If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite
you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man." -- Mark Twain
Interestingly, though, if you give a starving dog 10cc's of Sodium Amytal,
he too will lead you down a toilet. (It's a little-known fact that Lassie
was a serious narcotics addict -- "Lassie's trying to tell us something --
she needs another fix." &-& "You never bit the Kenosha Kid, did you girl?")
A-and:
"To his dog, every man is Napoleon; hence the constant popularity of dogs."
-- Aldous Huxley
Spectro to Pointsman: "I only wonder if you'd feel the same way without all
those dogs about. If your subjects <sic> all along had been human."
Brendo
"Raww-right!" -- Scooby Doo
