birdseed

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Lady Human, can I have…?

Me: No.

Sweetie: But I would like…

Me: No and double no.

Sweetie: You don’t even know what I was going to ask.

Me: You were eyeing the parakeets’ bowl of birdseed which thankfully you can’t reach and no, you may not eat birdseed.

Doodlebug: Just as a taste treat?

Me: Nope. You don’t see me eating it just as a treat, do you?

MoonCat: Not a good argument, ma’am. The list of things that dogs would eat though you wouldn’t would wrap around the world.
