The Party’s Over – Now for Cold Turkey!

New Year’s Eve – the end of the party

Hi, Pearl here! I thought I’d get a little post in before the dreaded Gutenberg strikes. I’m not exactly sure what Gutenberg is, but Annabelle talks about it like it’s some kind of demon that’s about to descend on Blogland, making it impossible to post anything.

I’ve got to say I’m not  impressed with 2020 so far. Annabelle says I’ve got to do something called ‘cold turkey’. I thought I’d done that already – I’ve had chicken or turkey with my dinner every day for the past couple of weeks – but apparently cold turkey means giving up turkey. She says it’s my New Year’s resolution and I have to stick to it. I think it’s a damn cheek that she’s making New Year’s resolutions on my behalf, particularly as she hasn’t made any herself, but that’s humans for you – one rule for them and another for us.

The worst of it is that human rules don’t work. That’s why the world is in such a mess, and I can’t see it changing just because it’s a new year. Of course, if we dogs were allowed to run things, it would be a different story. We have a strong sense of justice and fair play, and if someone is being greedy and taking more than their fair share, we sort it out in the most straightforward way. I truly believe that dogs can save the world!

This wonderful video demonstrates what I’m talking about.

The answer is simple – if you want real change in 2020, put dogs in charge!

Happy New Year, everyone!
