Old dog seeks new trick 7

[Old Dog]

...because you wanted some encouragement?

Yes, you're right, I'm such a ... well I don't know, but I am one.

I will get on it.

Dogs. Yes. My flatmates have one. A funny little thing. It idolises my male flatmate even though he belongs to my female flatmate.

I think they are too subservient to be my favourite though. I love dogs, but they're too needy. Co-dependence anyone :-)

I prefer cats. They are a model of independence. Mind you I won't modelling myself on our cat as she's frightened of her own shadow, all men bar me (and even then she forgets at times), vomits her biscuits up at regular intervals and many more peculiarities. I've owned far 'better' cats. She is very beautiful though: black all over, whiskers and all. Silky and sleek with a very long 33cm tail.

Why did I call myself Old Dog again?

Oh yes, I want to learn new tricks don't I. I think I can. I think I can. I know I can. I know I can.
