This is Skip versus Ernestine, round 12.

As always, refereed by Snow White here, our daughter, Hazel, who trust me is not what she

appears to be right now because on Saturdays we always take Hazel to the outdoor mall near

us because everybody takes their dog to the outdoor mall near us because everybody takes their dog to the outdoor mall.

And your pet peeve is that people constantly...

Oh, it's just ridiculous.

I don't understand why people feel that because you have a dog and they have a dog,

they have to bring their dog over to your dog. Bad idea with this one.

People don't always like other people. Why do dogs have to like other dogs? And it's not that

she's a nut. She is a nut, but why do you have to put your dog near my dog? First of all,

I don't want your dog's nose near my dog's

nose because they can get some kind of disease. And yeah, it's true from the noses because,

you know, their noses. Well, usually kind of sniff the other end, you know, right? But yeah, you don't want,

I don't want somebody else's nose on my dog's nose. I've had some success with her nosing other dogs for like five seconds.

Yeah, but I don't need their dogs over my dog.

We finally gave up on it because she does not like other dogs.

She wants to fight.

She is the warrior princess.

And she does not like any other humans except Ernestine and I and her sister Joyce.

That's it.

Period.

End of story.
