Moanday Monday & A Truce In No Man's Land!
So she who must be obeyed ignored said she'd had enough of the situation with Mr.Stinky. The last straw was the other day when we were off to the park and peeps was locking the front door with her back to the gate just as he was passing by. I lunged, she squealed in pain, he jumped in the air and all hell broke loose. Next thing I know my sorry butt is dragged mercilessly towards Mr.Stinky. I was forced to sit and shut up. She even glared at me whilst apologising to said man whose name is Brian. So she tells Brian to ignore me as I am all mouth and no trousers which actually is true. He then said he's be brave and give me a pet and OMD he did after I tried and run and hide behind peeps legs. Nope she was having none of it and made me sit right in front of him. Anyways turns out he is quite a nice chappy as he knew latin and knew what the tile on the side of our front door read. 'Beware of dog' from a famous mosaic in Pompeii. Well what can you do if a learned man appreciates us dogs and our famous guarding skill? Forgive and let's have a truce in no man's land. Not saying it will be waggy tails or anything but may be I'll find a new victim to terrorize. For now them I might be nice to Brian. Have you ever forgiven anyone?
Have a marvellous Monday all.
Oh, I'm scared of everyone so I usually just run and hide. But that wasn't very nice of your Mum-person to make you sit there like that.
ReplyDeleteWell, you got a chance to have a go at an educated man! LATIN! WOO HOO! But no one need be afraid of Miz Molly, the gentle but mischievous girl!
ReplyDeleteI would say Molly is not too scary for sure

Our security issues are covered by the cat, if you need a lend of him Molly just let us know.
ReplyDelete:-) x x x
claim to have a 10 second goldfish memory we say - and next time you see Mr Stinky you can still bark your head off at him
ReplyDeleteMOL MOL of dear me to be a fly on your wall. Molly you live a charmed life.
ReplyDeleteHugs madi your bfff
Forgiving is the hardest thing to do, so I am very impressed with you, Molly. Who knows? Maybe this will lead to a beautiful new relationship.

love the mosaic and thanks for telling us what it means... i am impressed you sat in front of him when mom said to... good girl.... thanks for letting homelan security know we are protected here. we have a nosey neighbor to
ReplyDeleteSnorts. That's kind of funny sweet Molly. I've been watching little Houdini here. When he gets scared, he runs behind mom/dad's legs to hide. It's too funny. So I can picture you doing the same. Snorts - have a great day! XOXO - Bacon
ReplyDeleteMaybe he will bring you over some real bacon or good treats, I don't think we have ever forgiven anyone yet...but I am sure we will...um.......oh maybe mom for not being a good cook??

a party truce is always a good compromise, specially when neighbors are involved. we have forgiven some people, of course, but we will not forget what they did. I want such a sign too, I've got one once what says: a rotten spoiled weimaraner lives here... think that's not latin and that means not the same, huh?
ReplyDeletei hope you'll be nice to mr. brian!
ReplyDeleteHopefully this will end up with a new friendship..
ReplyDeleteWow. Forgiveness looks like alot of work. Can't wait to hear which way you decide to go!
ReplyDeleteI think you have a great case if you decide to press legally about the defamation of your character.
ReplyDeleteDang Molly, this Brian would never ignore you!
ReplyDeleteMolly be nice to Mr Brian, he may come with tasty treats next time he passes by.
ReplyDeleteWe think this just MAY be a pawmising situation. Mr Brian seems to be... one of the good peeps. Guess you can't judge a peep from far away...
ReplyDeleteMolly you have me a smiling as always ,and that Mr Brian was privileged to get to pat your silky fur, hopefully it didn't smell he didn't smell like Mr. Stinky . (hee)
ReplyDeleteWell Ambercat has forgiven next doors 3 cats for tresspassing on her garden and even nicking her biccies - but she won't forgive the squirrel for pinching the apples off our tree each morning - can't understand why as cats don't eat apples. Hope Stinky hasn't got any designs on 'she who must be obeyed' - you better watch out Molly.
ReplyDeleteBailey still barks at our backyard neighbors after 2 years even though they are nice to him and their dog basically ignores him
ReplyDeletehugs
Mr Bailey & Hazel
You are a BIG dog for letting him pet you...and forgiving him for being so very stinky!
ReplyDeleteSmileys!
Dory, Jakey, Arty & Bilbo
I thought stinky was a good thing in a dog's eyes? (Er, nose...) Anyway, it's good that you made up - I'm sure you'll find someone else to terrorize!! Rita always does! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Molly, You and Hunter may sound like big bad dogs, but we both know you are as sweet as can be. Hunter growls and barks at other dogs but if they approached him, he'd be hiding. Glad Mr. Brian got to pet you. Maybe you'll have a new friend.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.
Noreen & Hunter
oh Molly you are too funny! xoxo
ReplyDeleteNice to know that it doesn't mean Randy Dog or anything.....
ReplyDeleteWe usually forgive IF they give us enough cheese.
Well done for making peace with mr stinky
ReplyDeleteBOL! Oh no! What a crazy story! That man was sure brave to face you like that! ;-)
ReplyDeleteღ husky hugz ღ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
Molly, you are very brave and I hope it keeps going well for you with Mr. Stinky. I think he should consider getting you some cheese.
ReplyDeleteLoveys Sasha
Well it does sound as if this Brian guy might be okay. We think you should give him the chance to prove it. We think stopping by with some treats would be a good place to start. XO, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth an Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteIt is just so very embarrassing when humans make us do such ridiculous things in front of others. Why don't they sit and pretend like nothing is happening?
ReplyDeleteWell I, Sweet William, have never met a person I dislike. But maybe you didn't give this Brian a fair shake. He sound like a kind dude to even want to pet you the way you terrorized him. Why he probably considered you a very active volcano always ready to erupt when you saw him. Like you tile.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a friend
Sweet William The Scot
I am very proud of you making a new friend! As I don't warm up to strangers easily (like you) I understand. I am best friends with my MinPin pal after hate at first sight! Love Dolly
ReplyDeleteWell you what they say about not judging a book by its cover. Maybe that guy will start to bring you some treats. Lightning is terrified of any one new that he meets, but he usually caves pretty easily:)
ReplyDeleteWoos - Phantom, Ciara, and Lightning
So far me and Stanley like everybody!
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
Join us for our week long "Road To The Great Debate"! It started today!
Well, who knew Mr. Stinky was an educated man.
ReplyDeleteAroo to you,
Sully
Sounds wise to be careful until you get to a know someone :)
ReplyDeleteHey Molly
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear Brian passed your inspection and came up to muster! It's good to have quality friends! :)
I hope you're having a fun day,
Your pal Snoopy :)
Forgive? Never!
ReplyDeleteWOW! We are very impressed Mol...VERY impressed indeed! In answer to your question...we are slow at forgiving, mom says it is something we need to work on.
ReplyDeleteWally & Sammy
It is a cool plaque...lol.
ReplyDeleteMy Hooman has used that description with me too Molly - "all mouth and no trousers". I dunno what she means, I have a very respektabibble pair of fluffy pantaloons! Cool plaquie fing :-)
ReplyDeleteHi hi hi! Ojo here! Forgiveness is good. I do not know Brian, so I cannot forgive him, but I forgive my first family who abandoned me and left me on the streets!
ReplyDeleteVery cool!
ReplyDeleteHappy hump day!
Slobbers
I think you and Mr Brian are going to be wonderful friends
ReplyDeleteHey Molly!
ReplyDeleteWow, sounds like this Brian fellow might be okay after all! BOL I pawsonally always try to bash someone new, so I understand your reaction to him. I like that tile too and should have one by my door. You'll still probably have to remind him who's in charge whenever he comes around, but I think you'll get along after that. BOL
Grr and Woof,
Sarge, Pol Comm
Love your sign! Perhaps you need to persuade Brian to bring treats next time he pops along for a visit!!
ReplyDeleteHrm, Latin you say? er...well we SUPPOSE that's all right and all. Have we ever forgiven? Uhh.....nah, we kitties can't recall! MOL!
ReplyDeleteWell, if he can read Latin, maybe he can be tolerated.....
