I have had dogs most of my adult life. Most of them well behaved, some even very well behaved.
And now I have the mutts, "The Worthless Ones", and they are anything but well behaved. They chase cars in the street, they chase and try to scare folks who walk by ( few, thank goodness) , they use the inside to go to the bathroom if it is wet outside, they bark at things only they can hear and they totally lack the switch off button, in short, they drive me mad.
How did this happen, I wonder. Where did I go wrong, and so spectacularly.
Are Mexican dogs different?
I see the Mexicans who live in the shantytown at the bottom of my hill with their dogs, and they are all well behaved, to a point.
Why me and what do I do ?
I try to think of some good points in their favor. I fail.
Somehow I was meant to suffer for my sins with these mutts.
And boy do I suffer. And loudly.
Like this.

they shoot horses don't they?....

the worthless ones have had a good long time on this planet, its time for them to go... and Mr Alan to get ONE sweet scottie puppy, "Elly Amaling" or "Dame Janet Baker" or even "Leontyne" and take the time to train her to be the lady she should, as was Ms Asta..

put the worthless ones out their and your misary!

Hey... I like this EHS in PMI person...you(and Uncle Chuck)had great dogs, even if they loathed the Younger Bennett Clan they never gave you this kind of trouble but there is a small part of me wonders if you would get out of bed everyday if they weren't in your life?!?
