Sayings. And ONE more rant.....


It’s October 13, and it is Silly Sayings Day.  So you KNOW I have come up with a few of my own – I’ve just used some famous sayings to get me started…

First we have the proverb:  A fool and his money are soon parted.  
Viktor says:   A fool and his stolen roll from the counter are soon parted.  Unless he can swallow it whole.  VERY quickly.


Franklin Roosevelt said:  The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
Viktor says:  The only thing we have to fear is a delivery from the grooming supply store.


We have a saying by an unknown author:  Everything in moderation.
Viktor says:  Nothing in moderation.  Live large.  Be a dog.


We have another saying by an unknown author:  Out of sight. Out of mind.
Viktor says:  Out of sight.  Time to countersurf.


Theodore Roosevelt said:  Speak silently and carry a big stick.
Frodo says: Bark LOUDLY and steal the big stick.


John Heywood said:  You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
Viktor says:  You can lead a PON to water, but you can’t make him swim.


Another unknown saying is:  Friends are God's way of taking care of us.  
Viktor says while that IS true he thinks:  Dogs are God's way of taking care of us.  

And as a quick follow up to my rant yesterday about purebred dogs, my human insisted that I tell everyone there is ONE thing she hates hearing when she asks someone what kind of dog they have. She hates hearing “he’s JUST a…..”  While I talked about purebred dogs yesterday and the importance of preserving breeds – please don’t EVER be ashamed of your adopted mixed breed dog and say “he’s JUST a…”  ALL dogs are precious and wonderful friends.  We have a bond with humans that no other species has.  So just as people should not feel shame for owning a purebred dog – people should be also proud of providing a loving home for their rescues.  End.of.rant.  For today!

Have a good one. Peace and paws up!
