    Dog lover

    My wife and I were walking the dogs, and we stopped at the local supermarket. While she popped in, I waited outside with our mutts.

    A guy on a bike stopped nearby. An older man, a farmer. Worn cap on his head, trousers a bit too short, dirty hands. A common sight, here out in the countryside.
    He walked up to me and started petting my dogs, a Jack Russell and a mixed breed Shepherd/Border Collie.
    He seemed genuinely fond of animals, and we started chatting. He ruffled their pelts and smiled.

    And then he said: "Breed them for their furs, do you?"
    And he meant it. He summed up all kinds of animals you could kill for furs, and which ones he could no longer kill legally.

    From then on, I no longer felt comfortable him petting my dogs. Luckily, my wife came out of the store and we walked off.

    I'll never leave my dogs unattended again.

    And I never thought when I move out to the countryside, I'd end up in "The Hills Have Eyes."

      When he said, "Breed them for their furs, do you?"

      You should have replied, "Nope, just the meat"

        I was thinking the same thing Mike. Either that or you should have said, "No, I breed them to attack old farmers."

              That would have been a perfect thing to say.

                    At least our country is not the size of one of our cities.

                        I'd love to, but being pretty computer illiterate, I have no idea how to add a photo to my message.
                        Can anybody explain it to me in very simple steps?

                          Lo there do I see my Father.
                          Lo there do I see my Mother and my Sisters and my Brothers.
                          Lo there do I see the line of my people back to the begining.
                          Lo they do call me.
                          They bid me take my place among them.
