And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
My favorite dog is the one I have now. Over the course of my 70+ years I've had many, many dogs and they were all my favorite at the time. Nearly all of them were strays or came from the local pound and I loved all but one. Dumb as a rock and wouldn't stay here on the farm and when he ate he sprayed dog food all over the shop floor.
Missouri should be beagle, but they shut down the huge puppy farm North of Rolla in the 80's.
ReplyDeleteBased upon what?
ReplyDeleteI lived in Florida for 7 years in 3 towns. Might have seen 1 German Shepherd.
Chihuahuas and pits were everywhere though.
Lab? Never heard of 'em

ReplyDeleteI prefer Boykin Spaniels for my type of duck hunting. Labs are to big & clumsy for my sneak boat.
ReplyDeleteLabs are great dogs, loyal, smart and gentle but I can't believe this poll either.
