...most are stupid as hell....
.
I miss Daisy my old black lab.
Loyal, lovable, dumb as dirt.
She would bark and growl LOUDLY and threateningly if she didn’t
know you.
Just say ‘Hi Daisy!’ and scratch her behind the ears - Friend for life thereafter.
We got her when my brother-in-law was visiting from California and found her as a stray asked my wife to temporarily keep her until she could come back to pick her up. My kids fell in love with her and that was that.
