Running Off at the Mouth – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Why is the sun so bright? Doodlebug stinks. MoonCat is too far over on the cushion. And ..

Me: Sweetie, you’re running off at the mouth again.

Sweetie: I haven’t run off anywhere. I’m right here. And…

Me: I mean that you’re complaining too much.

Sweetie: Are you saying I have a big mouth? Well, the Great Creator made my mouth big for a reason, so I figure He means for me to use it.

MoonCat: And He made my teeth sharp. So I figure He means for me to use them when needed. Get my point?
