Bad Dog Bad Dog - No Biscuit

This true story posted by CBS News yesterday from Los Banos, California, is for Jasmin and Mr. Ed who I’m sure will appreciate.

A duck hunter who, had set his shotgun on the ground with its safety in the “on” position walked forward about 15 yards to retrieve some decoys was shot with his own gun. His black female retriever had stepped on the weapon and simultaneously disengaged the safety and pulled the trigger, causing the gun to fire, striking the hunter in the upper back with #2 shot. The injuries were said to be not life threatening.

This sort of puts a whole new perspective on the philosophy that, “There are no accidents.”

Poem Artwork

Good morning Mr. Master

Please, a bit more to the right

This one’s for awakening me

In the middle of the night

 

To come out here and splash about

In the wet brush and the cold

This playing with the wooden ducks

Has gotten rather old

 

Remember when you tricked me

With that little piece of bone

Then threw me on the back porch

So I had to be alone

 

Do you recall you scolded me

For stealing from the table

Now I’ve noticed cheap dog food

Cause I can read the label

 

Don’t forget the time you stopped me

 Getting humped by that poodle

Not once have I interfered with you

When mistress messes with your noodle

 

If you think I don’t need treats

You sadly are mistaken

I’m glad you’re so oblivious

As I sneak your morning bacon

 

You promised we would take a walk

After each obedience class

But my walk ends up in my back yard

While you sit on your a**

 

My aim might have been better

If it hadn’t been so rainy

That and if my gun instructor

Hadn’t been Dick Cheney

 

 

Affectionately, Yer Dog
