Hold Your Tongue – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: What’s all that noise? Why doesn’t it stop? I can’t even think. Why is the world so loud? How can we make the noise stop?

Me: Start by holding your tongue.

Doodlebug: Lady Human, that sounds like that “bite your tongue” advice. Not as painful, but almost impossible to do.

Sweetie: Yeah, my tongue is way too slippery to hold.

MoonCat: Step 1: Tongue inside mouth. Step 2: Lips closed. Step 3: Stay that way.
