Wolflike

Shiba Inu with Pillow

The Shiba with his lawful prey.

Me:  So it says that Shibas are the most wolflike of all dogs.

Tierce:  Really.

Me:  Yep.  You’re as genetically close to a wolf as it’s possible to be without actually breeding with one.

Tierce:  If you’re expecting me to hunt for the dinner table, you’re going to be sadly disappointed.

Me:  It’s just an interesting fact.

Tierce:  Well, you’re interested in all sorts of boring shit.

Me:  Says the dog who thinks it’s a delicacy.

Tierce:  Don’t knock it til you’ve tried it.

Me:  You are disgusting.

Tierce:  Shaking your fist at me will not change my opinion.

Me:  I’m not shaking my fist at you!  I’m suppressing my gag reflex.

Tierce:  Like that’ll do anything.

Me:  You know, genetic similarity works both ways.

Tierce:  And?

Me:  Well, like wolf behaviour reveals interesting facts about dog behaviour, your behaviour reveals fascinating things about wolf behaviour.

Tierce:  Such as?

Me:  Wolves are assholes.
