"Who's a good boy?" asked National Doggy Appreciation Society president June Erhardt, speaking before an estimated 300 canines ranging from border collie to schnauzer. "Who? Who?"
Added Erhardt: "Is it you? Is it you?"
Despite its consensus on overall dog adorableness, the dog-loving community remains sharply divided on the question of who is a good boy. Some say the answer is "Such a good boy, yes." Others contend the good boy "needs his belly rubbed, yes, oh yes." Still other factions maintain that the only good boy is "my special little snuffy-snuffers, the bestest of all the best boys there is."
With canine-cuddliness levels at an all-time high and adorability-boosting ribbons and chew toys plentiful at pet stores across the
nation, no resolution to the good-boy-identity issue appears to be on the horizon.
"The dog owners of this country still have a great many questions that require answers," said Indianapolis NDAS delegate Janine Mulhern. "Who is, in fact, my favorite little guy? Who, for that matter, has a fuzzy little tummy-wummy? And, perhaps most importantly, who wants to go outside?"

I have four good boys here and they all like their fuzzy wuzzy tummies rubbed. Sometimes that leads to them hanging on my leggy weggy.

RawBUNZel do you have any idea how a person can hurt themselves trying to laugh hysterically and be quiet at the same time. My poor hubby is exhausted and here I am PIMP
holding back hysteria.
Leggy weggy??

It's probably way beyond the scope of any republican or republican sympathizer or even two respondents chortling with an ignnoramus's glee to realize that a pet is chosen by a person or a party (get it yet), and becomes master of the person when it pees on his or her leg or wants his tummy wummy wubbed.
All it can do is threaten to bite a nonowner or bark ineffectively as the nonowner passes by in front of the owner's house.

I love kitties, you can rub their tummies and they will never hang on your leggy weggy...they might shred your body to bits but, on the upside no embarrasment with the neighbors. Oh yeah and cats never great you with a nose in the crotch. That's what I really like about CATS!!

Zilvy, they just cant reach those crotches
Dog language is special. One must talk in a high pitched voice, have a speech impediment and do baby talk. Do that, and they will wigglewaggle all over the place

I had a cat that hung on my leggy weggy. It did use all of it's claws and always jumped from a great distance to do it.
I also had a cat [well, a kitten ] that crawled into bed with me and my boyfriend [many years ago]and curled up to sleep in his crotch....much to his great suprise come morning!
