<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 407649, member: 308"]Sorry I'm a bit late to the party as usual. The French do have some interesting animal stories. There's a story called <i>The Wolf and the Dog </i>by Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695). In the story there's a mastiff that tries to convince a wolf to give up the hard life of the woods for the comfy and well fed life of a guard dog. He makes some progress until the wolf finds out he needs to wear a collar at night. I'm just wondering if something similar is going on here - a free dog as opposed home bound dogs. Just a thought.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
