A toad? What kind of dog do you have? (smile) A water
spaniel? A setter (do they point?) I can understand
taking off after an attractive dog of the opposite
gender, but a toad? (smile) Good thing he (?) didn't
catch it. With dogs' propensities for eating things,
it probably wouldn't have been good for him. Might hav
egiven him warts, at least (grin).
