If I were Barney, I would Bite Him.....

3. I feel sorry for Barney
To a dog, one's master is a god. Barney is the only person on the planet who does not know what a jerk W is.

14. Probably because...
Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 01:10 PM by theHandpuppet
... whoever grooms that dog ought to be slapped upside the head. That is absolutely the worst Scottie cut I have EVER seen. Who the hell ever told them to cut a Scottie's beard and shave his tail like a rat?!! No wonder Barney looks so long-suffering... between having to endure GW and that awful clip, he's probably hoping to be rescued!

I do feel sorry for the dog though, and yes, I wish Barney would just bite him.

9. LOL! You bring up a good point.
Compare that to "buddy", President Clinton's dog. That was a big dog for the big dog.

13. Pardon me...
Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 01:05 PM by theHandpuppet
... but as the companion of what you call a "wussy looking mutt" -- a Scottie, you have really no idea what you are talking about.

Scotties are small but tough terriers bred for killing vermin such as rats and badgers. They are rated by the experts among the five top guard dogs for their territoriality, fearlessness and strength of bite. Don't let their small stature fool you. They aren't named "The Diehard" for nothing. A Golden Retriever might welcome a burglar into your home and show him to the safe, but there's no way you'd get past a Scottie.

The most famous White House Scottie, Fala, was the inseparable companion of FDR. Other presidents who at one time owned Scotties included Teddy Roosevelt (Jessie), Dwight Eisenhower (who had two, Telek and Caacie), Ronald Reagan (also two, Scotch and Soda), and two First Ladies, Eleanor Roosevelt and Jackie Kennedy also had Scotties of their own.

Don't project the character of the owner onto the dog. And my tough-as-nails little Scottie is proud to be a DEMOCRAT!

11. Barney looks like the very essence of the phrase "long suffering"
Such dignity in the dog. Can't say the same for the chimp.

15. Let's Rescue Barney!
Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 01:36 PM by goclark

I think he is adorable and he is so unhappy. Just look at his eyes!
He appears too big to be held. Where is his lease?
I do understand Barney's pain-he has such a loser for a owner.

My mother still talks about the time that she saw Laura B. giving a tour of the WH. She was going from one room into another. She looked at the dogs and said to them, " come on animals."

That made a tremendous negative impression on my mother. She could not believe that Pickles didn't call the names of the dogs.

Poor Barney, he lives with such uncaring people. Some people should just not be able to have a pet.

Barney, at the next Photo Op,here is the code: If you bark two times,then bark three times, then bark once we'll send the Rescue Mission in to get you and give you a wonderful home.

Until the next Photo Op... Hang On Barney, Hang On!

18. Here we go again...
The two MALES in that pic might be bastards, but they are NOT bitches. And I'd say Barney is neither.
