Don't get me wrong, folks. I love bulldogs!!! 'Just getting a point across.

A bulldog and a cobra Came face to face one day The cobra gently sunning Passing the time away The nasty minded bulldog Spotted the snake at rest The bulldog started barking Trying the snake to test The cobra meant no harm to This yelping snapping beast The cobra merely wanted Some solitude at least This did not please the bulldog Tried biting cobra's head The cobra gave one snap and Foaming bulldog was dead The moral of this story is this: Don't mess with someone who means you no harm lest ye be messed with once and for all.

I like the moral. One could also consider that one must know the danger before one confronts something new and unknown.

PS. I didn't know that Bulldogs had a belligerent and barking disposition. I thought they just laid around and looked like Winston Churchill. ;-)

The moral of this story is that the bulldog should've hired a mongoose.
