Queenie:
Isn't that how you people talk to them? Say things like "walkies" and "din-din" and shit?

Chewing Wax:
Those are called Shetland Sheep Dogs. They are supposed to be one of the smartest breeds.

bela:
I don't say that to my dogs. Not really any way.

Queenie:
He's a fucking idiot. Yesterday he was out in front of our house and he had this big slab of meat that he got from god knows where, and the moron laid down in the middle of the busy street to eat it.

Chewing Wax:
I started to say "pee pee" and "poo poo" to get Blue to go on command. I wasn't thinking. But at least she goes on command.

Heruka:
My parents had a shetland. Nice dog.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:25:34 pm)

Queenie:
That's disgusting.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:25:44 pm)

Chewing Wax:
I think you're missing the point. He had a big slab of meat.

Detlef Sping:
I say" Hurry the fuck up" and "Get the squirrel" to him.

Heruka:
My cat wouild lay ing the sun in the middle of the road. Cars would actually have to turn to go around him. He barely moved when they would go by. He knew they wouldn't hit him. We lived on a quiet street.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:26:57 pm)

Queenie:
But he left it there when a car came. He ran off. He was frightened by the big, scary steel dog with wheels, I guess. Moron.

Detlef Sping:
Meat mmm.

bela:
My brother has a Blue Healer, that dog is fucking smart man. Its sort of embarrassing, my dogs are so stupid compared to this dog.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:27:44 pm)

bela:
Don't have that attitude Queenie, thats mean. You should see if he doesn't have a home and take him to a shelter or something. Thats really awful.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:28:31 pm)

Heruka:
I think the smarest dog is a German shepard. Or golden retriever.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:28:50 pm)

Queenie:
Once this gay guy I knew had these two awful little fucking shitty dogs... the ones that look like mops... and he pampered them like little babies and it was so gross. Once I had to walk them while he was out of town. I felt like such an asshole walking around calling them. "Come here! Buttons! Bunny! Come on!"
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:29:04 pm)

Heruka:
Or if he poses a thereat, shoot him.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:29:13 pm)

Chewing Wax:
They say it's a Boarder Colley. I think Golden was third. From that book, The Intelligence of Dogs. They had a bunch of tests. Very subjective, but what else are you going to do?
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:29:37 pm)

Heruka:
Sounds like Tom.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:29:38 pm)

Queenie:
Well I thought about calling animal control or something, but most likely he'd end up dead if I did that. I mean, what are his chances of being adopted? I think his odds are better on the street.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:30:00 pm)

Queenie:
Buttons and Bunny. Imagine.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:30:35 pm)

Heruka:
I've always known dog intelligance was how much training they're capable of absorbing.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:31:35 pm)

bela:
A little dog like that would be adopted right away. They always are. You don't have a no kill shelter around there. Are you serious? Do you really think this dog lives on the street? Thats terrible. There are so many strays around Brooklyn, its really sad. I heard that years ago when there were packs of them at the waterfront, the cops would go down and shoot them. Thats pretty awful if you ask me.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:32:01 pm)

Queenie:
That is awful.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:32:24 pm)

Chewing Wax:
They did stuff like time how quickly a dog would take a towel off of it's head.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:32:28 pm)

Queenie:
I remember a story on the news about a crazy old man who had 40 cats and when the old man died the cats all went insane and animal control came and killed them all because they were "too wild". Like cats aren't supposed to be wild or something. What do people they think were before people started keeping them as pets?
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:33:46 pm)

Heruka:
I read something different. And it was a long tome ago. I tok a personality test, and I was matched up with a BAssett Hound. The most easy going of all dog breeds. We have hommies in common, we both lay around drooling on ourselves.

Chewing Wax:
A feral cat is completely wild. You can't keep them around.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:34:53 pm)

Queenie:
This dog I used to live with, a dumb-as-a-stump black lab named Dexter, used to tear up the garbage every single day. His owner, my boyfriend Kevin, would smack the piss out of him then make him sit in the mess with garbage on his head. Like once he shoved a take-out chinese food box on the dogs face and made him sit there with it for an hour. It was so terrible and made me so sad. But I couldn't do anything about it. Kevin treated me pretty much the same way.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:35:57 pm)

bela:
I think bela is the offspring of a feral cat. She was absolutely nuts when she was a kitten, she looks like a Maine Coon cat too.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:36:05 pm)

Chewing Wax:
And there are studies lately which indicate that cats and men, and dogs and men evolved together. There were no cats before people started keeping them as pets. Not as such.
(Fri Dec 7, 2001 - 3:36:11 pm)

Queenie:
My experience with Kevin and Dexter has forever tainted my opinions... of both dogs and men.
