Transcript:
Rat: Yo, dude. What are you doing? Pig: Waiting for my friends, Ms. Lydia. She's bringing her dogs. Rat: Those tin little things? Then I'm leaving. Pig: What's wrong with tiny little dogs? Rat: There's that. Ms. Lydia: Foofy!
Why do some people always insist on bringing their dogs into places those dogs aren’t supposed to go? Service dogs I see and support them being brought in because their there for a reason. The person bring them in can’t see or can’t hear, or the dogs are being trained to be service dogs. And stores that welcome pets being brought in, typically pet stores, I’m cool with. But most places don’t allow pets and only allow service dogs. And I have yet to see the resturant that allows pets (though I have seen those that allow service dogs which I think is a good thing). There is no way Ms. Lydia’s itty bitty Foofy was a service dog.
A man took his dog for a walk one hot summer day. Just as he was feeling really thirsty they came upon a little country pub. By the door was a sign: “NO DOGS – except guide dogs”. Undeterred, the man donned a pair of sunglasses and marched in with his pooch.“Hey!” yelled the barman, “no dogs allowed”.“Guide dog!” replied the man.“Guide dogs are German shepherds” said the barman.“Oh no!” said the man, “what have they given me?”
Anyone else curious as to how do the characters get up on those tall stools? But, there’s that same teeth-gritting expression! I agree with everyone’s comments!
My housemate never trained his poodle to stay out from underfoot. And when he is out, the dog is extremely insecure and seeks closeness, which put him under my feet constantly until I put a stop to it. Now the dog thinks I hate him. And so does his owner. But if I show any affection or attention, I wind up literally tripping over the dog.

Anybody not familiar with cartoon physics would wonder how a rat can step on and sqoosh a dog.

Boy did I get this one wrong . . . didn’t realize that Rat stepped on Foofy. I thought he step in Foofy’s poo. That is one small dog!

Reminds me of a scene in “A Fish Called Wanda”, when Michael Palin had to do-in the old lady, instead he knocked off her dogs one-by-one…

They must be dogs that are meant to be pets for small dogs
vwdualnomand over 11 years ago
are small toy dogs, really dogs? or, that a real dog is like marmaduke, but smaller than clifford?

I’m surprised Rat isn’t doing the twist on little Foofy.

What do you call the brown stuff between Rat’s toes? Slow chihuahuas.
