Sayings - So True

[texastwostep]

I thought I'd start a fun thread on Sayings that are related to dogs . I noticed a lot of people like to put them on their website. I have borrowed several from Run-N-Ridge (*hope she does not mind! ;D)

Great minds discuss ideas:
Average minds discuss events:
Small minds discuss people.
Elanor Roosevelt

"The Stud dog owner who says his dog never sired a splashed puppy, never sired a long tailed one, or an off colored one, probably owns a dog who never sired a good puppy either." Author: Vincent G. Perry circa 1928

I love the quote " Great minds discuss ideas: Average minds discuss events: Small minds discuss people. It's really something to think about because nowadays only few people discuss ideas.

I don't see how the first quote relates to dogs or how it's all that wise. However, I guess the third line would make some sense.

About the second quote, the only wisdom I can see in it is that stud dog owner might not be entirely truthful. Not only do accidents happen (and the owner should be made aware of them), but if they're considered reputable, they shouldn't have to lie. I should mention that they might either change breeds or raise different breeds.
