It's a Dog's Life . . .
ME: What! You have had that toy for only two hours and you already broke it!?!
DOG: [With a look of umbrage on his face. ] I most certainly did not.
ME: Yes, you did. Look. [Points at toy.]
DOG: It’s not broken.
ME: It had two knots in the rope and a plastic thing in the middle. Now, there is only one knot and the plastic thing is missing.
DOG: First, it’s not missing — it’s right over there.
ME: [Turns head and sees plastic thing.]
DOG: Second, untying a knot is not the same thing as breaking it.
ME: You mean to tell me that you untied the knot?
DOG: Yes.
ME: Without opposable thumbs?
DOG: Yes.
ME: With just your mouth?
DOG: Yes.
ME: How?
DOG: I am very talented.
