Polite is Not My Middle Name – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Watch out. Stand aside. Coming through.

Me: Well, you could give a little more notice.

Sweetie: Your legs were in my way, Lady Human. I moved them over.

Me: A little politeness goes a long way.

Sweetie: I am a bulldog. Polite is not my middle name. Cuddly, yes. Adorable, yes. Wonderful, yes. Polite just wastes time. Coming back through.

Doodlebug: I’m polite!

MoonCat: Me, too, if extra treats are forthcoming as a result.
