Who ever heard of an
intellectual canine? Smart dogs,
intelligent dogs, certainly.
Smart dogs recognize routine
and intelligent dogs can be
taught to bring the morning
papers to the breakfast table.
Anything to be recognized and
praised. But what of the really
precocious dog who loves the
newspapers? Who cares nothing
for praise but is so consumed
and fascinated by the news
he's prepared to devour it all
digesting the news much as
his human companion, a
true news hound does. Her
dog thoughtfully chews on
the news of the day awaiting
a discussion to follow, reasonably
enough. When all he hears in 
response to his preparation
for a serious chat is "bad dog!"
