Minnie: What are you staring at so intently?
Mo: You see those two dogs over there? The one on the right is called Marcus and he thinks he speaks goose.
Minnie: So you're going to attack him?
Mo: No, I'm going to honk at him until his ears burn.
Marcus: Hey, Buddy, I'm so glad we ran into Minnie and Mo again. Jan won't let me wear my sign in public (Giggle of Goose Gaggle) but Mo is honking at me anyway. He says he really looks forward to seeing me on our walks.
Buddy: You can't honestly believe a goose looks forward to seeing you.
Marcus: Of course I do. Mo wouldn't lie.
Buddy: But what if you're translating geese ... er, goosespeak wrong?
Marcus: Here, I'll translate for you. Mo says, "Marcus is my best friend, except for you, Minnie. It's a shame he doesn't have wings. He could fly away with us."
Minnie: Mo, I think you need to calm down a bit and stop honking at that Marcus dog.
Mo: I've been speaking my opinion of him at full volume for ten minutes and that dog thinks I'm flattering him.
Minnie: Perhaps he needs his hearing checked.
Mo: Maybe he needs a dictionary!
Minnie: Oh, I know. He's having a problem with your accent. We're Canadian Geese. Marcus is a Georgia dog. They speak Southern Drawl here.
This sounds like a very noisy post.
ReplyDeleteI think it is the accent too. LOL!
ReplyDeleteBOL!!! they are everywhere by the pond and their poop are just yucky :-) Golden Woofs SUGAR
ReplyDeleteI grew up on a farm and we had geese. Vicious things so they made very good guard 'dogs'!
ReplyDeleteThat's Purrfect
OMD OMD MARCUS.... Mo said he wants to be your Bestest Furend??? THAT is SOUPER.. you could invite him fur SUPPER. BaaaaaaaaWaaaah.
ReplyDeleteNo.. seriously... it is cool drool that he is HONKING beclaws he wants to be your Furend.
BUTT we DO think that you SHOULD have been allowed to wear your SIGN... There may be OTHER Geese who are in need of a GOOD FUREND... Just sayin.
Since you are speaking goose are you gonna fly too?

Murphy & Stanley
I am sure he does look forward to seeing you on your walks- who wouldn't?
ReplyDeleteOh, Marcus, hope springs eternal! Once they get to really know you, they'll change their honk.

Inter-species talking at its finest.
ReplyDeleteLove your stories.
ReplyDeleteOur geese never hava a hard time honking y'all get outta the way!
ReplyDeleteWe think Marcus might have gotten lost in the translation. Be careful, those Canadian geese can be mean. Mom bean says they might even chase you!
