The dog is man's best friend. He can do many things for us. He can protect our homes. He can guide the blind. He is loyal to his master and never asks for a pay raise.
The dog has also made many contributions to English. For example, if there were no dogs, how could a husband tell his wife her cooking tastes like dog food? How could the weatherman say, "It's raining cats and dogs?" So the next time a dog lifts a leg to your bicycle, don't kick him. Bend down and say, "Take your time."
