Boy, that reminds me of the 3 legged pig joke.

And that reminds me of my neighbor's devotion to his dog.

My neighbor has a 13 year old dog with no legs. The dog was run over by a car and all four legs were crushed. They didn't have the heart to put the dog down so they continued to care for the dog. They kept it in a room with somebody in the family all the time. It could eat and drink from its bowl and when ever the call of nature would come, it would bark and one of them, usually one of the children would take it outside and hold it up while the dog relieved itself, then bring it back in the house.

When I first met the family, I thought the accident had happened maybe within the past year or so. I was surprised to find out the dog had been run over when it was a young pup of only nine months. They had kept a dog with no legs for over 12 years. When I inquired as to what the dog's name was, they informed me that the dog had never been given a offical or actual name.

They explained further that they felt it did not make much sense to give the dog a name since it wouldn't come when you called it.

Great pig like that you don't eat all at once
