Der Dairy, have I told you that Zorro is running a debating club in Doggy Heaven? He is a natural leader! Zorro says there are many responsibilities for a top dog like him, and he likes to hear from all audiences. The debates are usually between the pedigree dogs and the mixed breeds, but there are other groupings as well. For example, the working dog group against the hounds, the sporting dogs against the non-sporting etc.
Zorro is usually agreeing with the pedigree dogs, he insists that he is of Royal Scottish Guard breed. Well, Zorro is good looking, but I have never met another dog of this rare breed.
Today there was a debate between Zorro and Bernie (St Bernard, a working dog) on the topic: What is better: sardines or bacon?
Zorro argued that bacon indeed smells and tastes deliciously but cannot beat sardines! And sardines are healthy, while bacon gives you blocked arteries, so sardines are better.
Bernie argued that dogs do not know anything about arteries and the debate is really about taste and bacon simply tastes better.
Dr. Goldie asked to speak, and she said that bacon is good for the soul. Then someone barked that sardines are good for your fur. Lucy, the mediator (a Sky terrier) lost control over the audience and uncontrolled yapping broke out. The crowd separated in a sardine and a bacon side, I stood cautiously in the middle. It started to look ugly when Loba intervened and suggested that bacon wrapped sardines was the best and why don’t we all try it out? So, we all got to the canteen and ordered some up and everyone agreed with Loba.
Dr. Goldie ate more than everyone else, then she puked. “I have a sensitive stomach, she said.
