So my dog died before I went to Uni about 2 years ago. Ever since then I've wanted my folks to get another mutt. My parents get this great idea to go and look at the dog shelter today, so I tag along. We see this dog that looks 95% like my old one, and mother dear and myself go "awww... it's adorable etc"
Dad: It's a bitch, I don't want to take on a bitch in case she ends up pregnant.
Me: It says she's been spayed.
Dad: Yeah, well she's probably tempremental.
Me: It says she was given up because the owner was always at work.
Dad: Yeah, well it's probably really old.
Me: It's 18 months. She's barely full grown.
Dad: Yeah, well I bet she isn't trained.
*my dad gestures at her to sit, and she does, wagging her tail*
Dad: Yeah well, she's really quiet. I need a dog with a decent bark.
*he turns his back and it starts barking*
Christ could this dog have made it any more obvious that it wanted taking home? Plus it kept avoiding the big lump of dog doo on the floor of its kennel like a pro. Ah well, my dad decided he hasn't got the time for a dog, but "if it's still there in a few months, then maybe" :rolleyes:
