Following on from the Duke of Edinburgh (... gosh, I never thought I'd be saying those words), I've thought of some more possible assistance dogs - hopefully a tad more politically correct than his idea.
Chatty dogs for the reticent
Ridiculous dogs for the sensible
Thinking dogs for the stupid
Attractive dogs for the ugly
Scintillating dogs for the dull
Hot dogs for the chilly
Organised dogs for the scatter-brained
Instant dogs for the impatient
Shaggy dogs for the socially inept
Tasty dogs for the hungry
and (although I don't think this will catch on) Living dogs for the dead
Of course some of those have varied uses - hot dogs for the hungry, for instance.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot homing dogs for those who are navigationally-challenged.
Our dogs run a mile at the thought of doing anything useful. Apart from being attractive of course.
ReplyDeleteSickasadogs for the hungover?
ReplyDeleteHow about Reservoir Dogs for the dehydrated?
ReplyDeleteGonetothedogs for the dissolute and debauched?
ReplyDeleteI like this game.
ReplyDeleteDave - I thought ALL dogs were homing dogs? Maybe there should be homing dogs for the homeless?
ReplyDeleteRog - ... which was th on my list (tee hee!) ... they could be Unspecified dogs for those unwilling to be pigeon-holed
Fran - LOL - nice ones! Or Hair-of-the-dogs? *hic*
Martin - Ha ha! Diamond Dogs for the poor?
I have no suggestions, but a most enjoyable chain of thought!
