Pickles by Brian Crane for January 30, 2013

“And that’s just on my side. On your gramma’s side …”

We’re all going to the dogs !

By means of my great-grandparents, I think I am ⅛ German, ⅛ Scottish, ¼ Danish, ½ English.

He’s pulling your leg again Nelson.

Greatgrandma had some deviant behaviors.

Does that mean Roscoe is hypoallergenic?

I’m 50 % pointer (there it is, there it is), 50 % setter (Irish setter), 50 % watch dog, 50 % spitz, but mostly I’m all Labrador retriever.

is he what you would call a hybrid ??

in other words……a typical American

Aww, Roscoe is happy about that!

100% italian…pedigree.

That slick talking mutt was Charlie the dog, well played 59.

Sounds like our family. I’m part English on both my mother’s and father’s side, (via UEL on Mom’s,) part German and Italian on Dad’s side, part Welsh and Pennsylvania Dutch on mom’s side.

I’m part English, German, Austrian, Hawaiian, and perhaps Scottish or Irish.

I’m English… But I have Irish, Scot and Welsh roots. But they’re very distant.

Why don’t they typecast people as “mutts?”

I’m English, Irish, Dutch and Cherokee.

aww lookit him wg his tail.

Isn’t ‘cockapoodle’ a cookie? Or is that a ’labradoodle?

Yes Nelson your in a long lime of muts

Cockapoodle? Well, Nelson, Roscoe isn’t a poodle, so you two must be related by the other part. Since you’re both male, sounds reasonable!!!
