Bulldog Dignity – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Lady Human, I have changed my mind.

Me: Wonders never cease.

Doodlebug: I don’t want a hole in the yard to sit in. I am not a toad. It would be undignified.

Me: Good, because I don’t really want any bulldog-sized sitting holes in the yard.

Sweetie: Nonsense! Comfort before dignity.

MoonCat: Look at my face. Isn’t it obvious? Both.

A Paw on the Shoulder – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Lady Human, howcome uou’re all slumped over?

Me: Just human stuff.

Doodlebug: I’m so sorry you are a human. It sounds so hard. Except you can drive a rolling box and open doors with one paw and reach things that are up high and…

Sweetie: I think you need a paw on your shoulder.

Doodlebug: Or two paws.

MoonCat: Yes, that’s it. Many bulldog paws lighten load. Just don’t squash her!
