Lord Monty Reporting for Duty

I'm Monty. I'm a Large Munsterlander and here are ten other facts about me:

 

1. Why am I appearing in this group with dogs? I'm not a dog; I'm a human.

 

2. And I'm not just any old human; I'm a lord. I'm imperious. I hold my head high. I hold court. Dogs approach me; they lick my mouth. They quiver with joy if I look at them ...so I don't.

 

3. Apart from me, there are two other human's in our house, Kate and Kevin. I live with a dog. His name's Jacko. I think he's some kind of servant. He always wants to play - I'm far too posh to play. Well, sometimes I play with him, but that's only to stop him pestering me ...I don't enjoy it at all. It's fake enjoyment and I quickly recompose myself.

 

4. I burp. One of my eccentricities.

 

5. I'm very busy outdoors. I have civil duties to perform - none of that silly waggy, trotting-along stuff for me. No! I have a job to do. I must follow scents. I must chase rabbits out of the village. There are so many and quite frankly, if I don't do it, who will.

 

6. Jacko, the dog-servant is always thinking about food; he's dreadfully common - happy to eat anything. I'm more choosy - rather fond of a bit of stilton actually.

 

7. Sometimes the other humans leave the house and don't take me with them. I have to guard the castle ...I mean house, from marauders and to make sure Jacko the servant doesn't steal from the bone store. I fret a bit until they get home - just pretend fretting of course.

 

8. I'm rare. I'm of German descent. I like law, order and discipline. I teach manners. Village puppies come to visit to pay their respects - they're cheeky, they jump up, they bark ...I tell them off, they squeal, they hide, they learn fast. When they visit again, they have manners. Marvelous.

 

9. I shout my head off in the car on short journeys - it's my battle cry - everyone loves it - I can tell by the look on their faces. Occasionally they join-in too. Kevin yells things like, "Will you shut up". I'm not sure what that means but it's a rubbish battle cry, I drown him out. Great fun.

 

10. I'm deeply, deeply loyal. I'd die in battle for my fellow humans. Battles are few and far between (actually I can't recall one, memory must be going...well, I am nearly 9yrs) but I watch their every move and I understand their every word (tilting my head from side to side helps, I find). When they laugh I nuzzle them, when they're sad I gently lick away their tears ...uh herm, only pretending to be a softy of course. Us lords are too proud for all that nonsense.
