Did you know?

Post by reddog »

Apocryphal lore holds that during Noah’s epic 40-day and 40-night voyage on the sea, leaks sprung in the walls of the ark. Water poured into the ship, threatening to sink it and all the creatures on board. Luckily for everybody, dogs were there to plug the holes with their noses. According to the legend, this is why our dogs, to this day, have cold noses.

As a Christmas present to myself, I buy a dog “page-a-day desk calendar” for on my desk at work. This little bit of trivia was on one of the recent pages and I thought some of you might enjoy it. :)

If ya ask me, it was probably the Chow that chewed the hole in the side of the Ark.

This is hilarious! :D
And probably the chow chow did the hole with aid of the tongue until its violet, just to save everyone.
