Food for thought

M: Sister ate rabbit's food today.
Y: I get so little food in this house that I have to resort to desperate acts.
M: You ate carrots!
Y:  You would eat them too.
M: Yes I would, but only because I love all food.

You can leave your hat on

M: Sister's got a new hat.

Y: I don't have a hat and I never had one.

M: She's got a hat.

Y: I refuse to discuss this issue any further.

M: A hat...

Y: I'll call the Union.

Winter coat

M: I had a very warm coat during the walk today.
Y: I trained so hard I didn't need any coat.
M: Once the ball was put away, you refused to walk.
Y: Of course.

Connecting dogs

M: Very interesting parcel we received today.

Y: Well, I of course immediately looked into the matter.

M: So did I.

Y: The human got some internet box. I would have preferred chicken.

M: Well connected we are. To sausage.

Hide & Seek

Y: So what if my own places are a little strange. They are my own.
M: I prefer satin sheets and a warm bed.
Y: Wherevet I lay my hat is my home.
M: You do not even have a hat.

The sheriff came to town

M: I demand service. I demand service now.
Y: Oh come on, you're nothing but sleeping.
M: You have no right to say. You push me off my pillow every night.
Y: There's only one sheriff in this town, and that is me.

Let's play again!

M: I went cycling today.

Y: You didn't cycle, you chased the human as he was riding a bike.

M: Was a very new thing to me, extremely interesting. Could we use it for walks?

Y: Cannot be used for training, so I think it's quite useless.

Taste like chicken

M: Did not like the toothpaste I was forced to use.

Y: You should contact the Union, I always do.

M: I prefer chicken toothpaste, much better thank you.

Y: I prefer my chicken on the plate. Have I mentioned I just love chicken.

Random encounters

M: I am very happy walking outdoors, I can hear my kilos flying away.
Y: I won't walk if we don't train.
M: Your training is still mostly eating grass and barking. No work, no gain.
Y: No walk, no train.

Fair winds

Y: Today we pay our tribute to a colleague.

M: Severi was a good dog.

Y: We wish him fair winds and happy trainings.

M: And many treats.

Cat in the ditch

M: Very nice autumn colours, very beautiful.
Y: You made a good call today, finding that cat from the roadside ditch.
M: Thank you very much.
Y: I was too busy training, you know.

Please repeat

Y: Have I told you what happened a couple of days ago?
M: Oh please...
Y: After a brief chase, I found a nice ham sandwich, and when I was just about to eat it...
M. You have told this story a million times.
Y: ...I was forcefully prevented from eating my prey...
M: <sigh>

Thieves

Y: I think it is a police matter. I would have called but I was too shocked.
M: You have told it today a million times.
Y: During the walk my awesome nose found a nice sandwich, with ham and everything. And just when I was starting to enjoy it, you know who spoiled all the fun.
M: I did not see it, I was carrying the ball home, very important business it is.
Y: The human woman stole my sandwich.

Losing bearing

Y: Today was just basic, basic surveillance.

M: Working very hard, very expensive you know.

Y: Saw a bear, but decided to let it go this time.

M: Getting old, quite demented already. Saw maybe a squirrel.

Carry on

Y: You're not taking a photo of me. I was forcefully placed here. 

M: Very handy system!

Y: I did not agree to this!

M: We can double the walking distance from now on. Very handy platform for going out!

Y: I will call the Union.

Bun intended

Y: I'll call the Union, it was a special day and I was mistreated.
M: Every day is a special day with Mr. Marlin.
Y: Today was the Finnish bun day. Have I mentioned I just love bun.
M: I probably like it very much.
Y: You never taste anything you eat.
M: But I like it very much.

Not enjoying the rain

Y:Today's walk gets -1 points from me. And I added a few points since I had some business to do during the walk.

M: I did not enjoy the walk too much either, very wet and unpleasant.

Y: But we can be very good at not walking.

M: I know all the shortcuts back home.

Complaints

Y: I tried the same as yesterday, taking your bone.
M: I told you not to.
Y: No need to yell.
M: I told you once, not going to tell twice.
Y: I'll just complain then.

Shopping

Y: We went to my shop today.
M: Was not your shop. But there were lots of food and goodies for us.
Y: They said I'm very pretty.
M: I tried to tell the humans they have a phone call waiting outside.
Y: You would have emptied the whole shop during one phone call.
