A lot depends on the breed, as well as the owner and how they treat them.

I love our elderly Dachshund. Very sweet and loyal breed. I also have experience of miniature pinschers my special Benji :heart: and beagles.

I'm sure you can use any breed to make sausage, you don't need special sausage dogs.

The crummy part of Windsor is properly pronounced Day-twa (Detroit).

Chips from the chippy that have gone cold taste better if you heat them up in the air fryer , even yesterday chips taste good.

I hate to see videos of myself blinking. You don't see yourself blinking when you look in a mirror because your eyes are shut when you blink. They should give lessons in graceful blinking.

Certain unglamorous areas of London sound better with some pronunciation retraining:
Clapham = Cla'am (as in "calm")
Streatham = St. Reatham.

That the word ''silent'' is an anagram of ''listen''.
