Mark Twain
"There are two novels that can change a bookish 14-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."
"The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it."

how big was the puppy?
Magic is a year-old boxer-hound mix who has no interest in anything except dashing around the area at top speed whenever the outer door gets opened before his lead has been put on. On the lead he calms down and would probably notice the kitten and want to investigate, but off the lead he is all about running 100 yard dashes. He will mind, but reluctantly until he burns off his excess energy.
You have to be careful when you put on the lead, because it usually occurs to him at that moment why he is outside and he takes care of business almost immediately, no matter where why he is..
he is all about running 100 yard dashes.
that sounds like every boxer I’ve ever met.

the fluffy black dog was the opposite, always waiting until the farthest point from home before pooping. I spent weeks trying to teach him to poop immediately, but unlike a lot of dogs, he never viewed walks (or runs) as that big a reward. he always enjoyed them, but after his early life as a stray living on the streets, I suspect he considered sitting in his own front yard watching the world go by as the real treat.
Magic is so immediate that his own doesn’t try to attach the lead in the house anymore, for obvious reasons.
If there isn’t something to herd, German Shepherds are content watching the world go by, waiting for something to herd to appear.
