May 9th: Barbara Woodhouse: Dogs

Barbara Woodhouse, the dog training lady, would have been 104 today. Since we had Hug Your Cat Day earlier this month, today is for the dog people! 10 quotes about Dogs:

1. Heaven goes by favour. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in. Mark Twain
2. Whoever said you can’t buy happiness forgot about puppies. Gene Hill
3. Money will buy you a pretty good dog, but it won’t buy you the wag of his tail.
4. Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or hump it, piss on it and walk away.
5. Dogs are the leaders of the planet. If you saw two living creatures, one of them does a poo and the other carries it for him, who would you think is in charge?
6. News from the Biggleswick sheepdog trials. None of the sheepdogs were guilty.
7. What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight - it’s the size of the fight in the dog. Dwight D Eisenhower
8. Only one member of our family eats the right things, gets plenty of exercise, sleeps well and never worries. Some people call him clever. We call him “Rover.”
9. Never stand between a dog and a lamp post!
10. Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read. Groucho Marx
