Yesterday I was a dog. Today I'm a
dog. Tomorrow I'll probably still be a dog. Sigh! There's so little hope for advancement. Charles M. Schulz (Snoopy)
The origin of the catchphrase 'It's a Dog's Life' is obscure. One of
the earliest popular reference is Charlie Chaplin's 1918 film called 'A Dog's
Life'. There is also a well known 1955 film by Herman Hoffman, this title
include the It's - 'It's a Dog's Life'.
The phrase is so evocative of the downtrodden hero, that it's perfect for
Charles M. Schulz's Snoopy. It's a dog's life has also inspired music and
also T.V. episodes of popular programs such as 'Murder She Wrote'.
Will and Guy are aware that most dog owners consider their animal to be the
best; the loveliest and the most beautiful dog in the world. So we were amused
to find a 'Beautiful Bulldog' contest because they are not considered to be the
most attractive looking of dogs.
Here we give you the winner of the competition: Buddy.
Also we are pleased to be able to announce that Buddy competed 'unadorned' for
the competition, unlike many of his rivals; they dressed up as fairy princesses,
rock stars, cheerleaders, bumblebees and even Snow White and Mr. T.
Buddy, who had a certain amount of fitness training for the competition is
normally found asleep on his back, snoring loudly with his large tongue lolling
out, reports his owner.
Here is a verse from the song composed and performed originally by Rufus
Thomas and later made famous by The Rolling Stones in the 1960's.
'Walking the dog
I'm just a walking the dog
If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog.'
10) Walking my baby back home
'Walking my baby back home' is a popular song written in 1930 by Roy Turk and
Fred Ahlert. Later it was a big hit in 1951 sung by the inimitable Nat King
Cole. This is how it goes....
Gee, its great after bein out late
Walkin my baby back home
Arm in arm over meadow and farm
Walkin my baby back home
