Our four-legged companions care not a whit for the pretensions, protocols, and self-important affectations of us Hoomins—a sign of their superior wisdom and just plain good sense. Had Higgens reacted in any fashion other than the way he did, he shoulda been shot. At the very least, the dog should have been taken away from him and placed with someone who appreciates them, and understands how to properly treat them. Good on the guy for handling things correctly.

I spend too much time awash in doom and gloom lately. Dogs keep me sane.
What a fine dog! I can see why his person loves him.
Our cats keep me civilized. Nothing like a lap pet with your special kitty!
