And They Just Give You the Food?

“They just put it in a bowl in front of you? You don’t have to chase it or anything? Oh, and tell me again about the dog bed — is it really soft? I’ll bet it’s really soft, am I right? Dude, you have got the sweetest setup ever! Can I get in on this? Did you have to pay anything?”

Well, there was that one trip to the vet where I came back a little lighter…

        Your funny post immediately triggered my school memories 🙂 It was uncannily similar to the Fable.

          With the scar in a slightly different place!

      Very cool! That reminds me of a question I already wanted to ask the wordsmiths here – how did ‘Tray’ become a popular old-time name for a dog? (it also appeared in the ‘Weird Christmas Cards’ post back in December). Was it from a popular Victorian story or something?

        Good question – I remember the lines of a song “Old dog Tray every faithful…”. I guess the same might be asked of Fido – tho’ I guess that’s a variant of fidelity.

          I don’t know where the name comes from, but it was used by Shakespeare in ‘King Lear’ – “The little dogs and all, Tray, Blanche, and Sweetheart, see, they bark at me.”

          Fido is from the Latin word fidelis (faithful).

    It’s Juniper and Moose – I recognize these two immediately! I know they’ve been featured here before…
