Latest example is Dunc the world according to chunk the golden is as i sit and have coffee he is Duncsplaining to our guest Ms.Bunny bum corgi that apparently all chew bones are for Duncans.
And the Corgi is who now very comfortable here after five weeks as guest at the furry Airbnb is not having any of Golden boys Duncsplaining as in Dunc went to grab the chew bone and she snapped at his ass and that made me laugh.
Now weve all heard of the mansplainer yea Duncs notched it up a level to Duncsplainer.
Tell you after she went off in defense of her treat mr tactically retreated a considerable distance as were not sure on the max effective range of corgi rage.
And he went back to his chewie thinking dam she has at least five thousand teeth i could have lost my snout and as he laid down letting out huge drama sigh and went back to chewing his bone.
Now Golden fathead cant let it go as he is now laying at a safe distance as in out of range of her five thousand teeth from the vicious thirty pound Corgi hamster impersonator.
And Dunc is barking the brat golden retriever bark that Im very familiar with as Mr Big paws our first golden would pull out oh so often. Mr big paws bonded with my wife and i actually became the third wheel he was such sweet furry boy.
Mr big paws as a pup i would get home off the road shower try climb in bed and he would not move out my spot hey you leave her i am always here for her you move to bottom of the bed mister.
Id say move your ass my wife would be laughing as she laid in bed. And he would force himself between us or i would throw covers over us and make loud kissing sounds and Mr big paws would open up with brat bark unhand her you masher pawing at the blankets.
And now the corgi is not paying Dunc any mind and hes getting tighter as in he looked at me.
As to say you seeing this shit dad shes so rude and she is a guest and she is not listening to me as i once again explain the rules as owner of Airbnb.
Dunc i said you and me were ride or die yet youre on your own on this one.
Dude is total shit his new thing to instigate is on our walks these people moved in down road and they have two bulldogs .
Dunc will squat by their fenced in yard only if bulldogs are inside and those dogs are losing it barking at the bay window its that golden asshole let us out mom he is trying to claim our property.
Yet if the dogs are out he will saunter causally past not stopping yet if they are inside he will mark it then kick dirt as to say here you go bitches i own this now.
You should take a leak or a crap also father and kick dirt will own it together. Then Ill clean up if he shits and i get that look obviously father i am perfect its apparent as you collect my poo.

(4,775 posts)His pal was part Corgi, part border collie. Yeah, a smart and stubborn sawed off border collie free thinker.
They got on fine, and my Golden didn't mine sharing toys and chewy things. But...
We lived in a very arid place with very bad water, so we harvested water for the garden. Had a big tub at the end of a rain downspout in the back yard. Golden Boy figured it was his really big water bowl but he was fine with me running the immersible pump to send the water to larger barrels during rain storms.
Corgi Collie and Golden Boy would race around the back yard until they nearly dropped. Golden would need to take on some water. One day, Corgi Collie, hot from their romp, decided drinking the water wasn't enough. He was hot and jumped into the big tub to cool his tootsie paws.
That was a bridge too far for the Golden. He knew he had to always be good to the little house guest, but... MOM! He has his feet in my water bowl! Wrinkled brow and sad, pleading eyes... 'He's in my WATER BOWL!'
After a couple laps walking around in the big tub, Corgi Collie jumped out, shook his luxurious border collie fur and all was forgiven as the chase around the yard resumed.
I truly hope those two pals found each other again on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge when each of their times came. Two of the smartest dogs that every ran and played.

(539 posts)Dunc better be watchful or that Corgi will be stealing his treat.
We had a Welsh Carigan Corgi that would steal the other two dogs (another Corgi and a German Shepherd) treats before they could say Woof.
