  10. Dog Tails and Myths

    <span style="font-size: small;">I still hear the same dog myths today that I remember hearing as a child. Call them myths, ol' wives' tails, folklore or superstitions, but they are not true and in fact may be just bad advice.&nbsp; They have been passed down from the Great and Powerful OZ and, even still, reside in the gospel of digital Dr. Google.&nbsp; There is no doubt that you will shudder and balk at the blasphemy against hundreds of years of &ldquo;proof&rdquo; that these fallacies are fact.&nbsp; It will rock the very core of your dog knowledge that you have rooted and passed on to all others who seek your mentoring and advice because you are&hellip;..&nbsp; &ldquo;Dog Person&rdquo;!&nbsp; If these &ldquo;facts&rdquo; as you know them are false, what else in this world can be true?&nbsp; Next thing you are going to tell me is that Lassie wasn&rsquo;t a real show about saving the life of little Timmy every week and, worse yet, Lassie was a boy dog!</span>
