Get along little doggie, get along!

This was one of those days that being a reporter is not only NOT fun, it is trying. I sat on the floor (on the floor, her creaking old bones said) in the state Legislature's Agriculture Committee room and listened to five and a half hours of testimony on dog bills.

You heard me. Dog bills.

Should kennel owners get to vaccinate their own dogs?
Should the definition and fees for kennels change?
Should their be a surcharge for rabies vaccine?
Should cats and dogs be licensed like dogs?

woof. woof. bark. bark.
For five and a half hours.

I'm dog tired. Throw me a bone and I'm headed for bed.

You poor thing. Want me to scratch behind your ears? Who wants bacon???

Poor you! Hopefully your next assignment will more than make up for it.

Do you need to be scratched around your ears, too?

Ha... My babies prefer being scratched at the *sweet spot* just above their tails... but I am NOT offering to do that!
How about a nice rubber bone instead? ;-)
