Mine used to call them upholstered rats.
Ironic - we’ve got the largest county and the smallest dog.
They'll always have room to run around in.

A woman writing about her life in the early 20th century, and a proposed job as cook, in Yorkshire:
"I could imagine Yorkshire. I visualized some spot right in the middle of the moors, and me stuck there with old Sir Walter and lady Gibbons [her employers].
I disliked the country in any case, for when you've seen one cow, or one tree, you've sent them all in my opinion. A cow's got four legs, a tree's got branches, but they don't do anything, do they?
I like talk, people and things that move around with a purpose."
My statement still stands unrefuted. I've found you out!

That doesn’t sound like me
It was, dearie. No one else but you could have
responded to me, who was saying how I mis-took the name of the event, and thought that "only the British would have a day to celebrate some damned dog."
You replied that your dad used to call them "upholstered rats."
I fell off my chair.
