If "Lady" [why is it that most everybuddy with a female Cocker Spaniel, particularly those of a specific coloration, name their b!tch Lady? No imagination? Brainwashed by WED & Co.? Need more drugs? Merely observin'.] would've practiced her toad suckage in moderation, she'd've been a functioning and contributing member of the household, with a recreational preference for amphibians.
Her excesses have put her into a need for rehabilitation, however, and brought shame and disrespect to her family.
Moderation in all things, m'dear ... even W.C. Fields knew this ...

"She seems to have outgrown the wild toad-obsessed years of her youth," Mirsch says, "and now only sucks on weekends."
Hmmm funny...that's what my EX used to say about me.

Thank you, Siouxie. I was hopin' someone would go there, besides me!

Nope. I got nothin' ... (in the conversational sense, strictly speakin' ...)

Wasn't there a toad-sucking dogin Big Trouble?
I know there were goats.

More like a toad-tormented doggie. Still funny, though.

My dog has had this problem since we got her at 6 months old, she's 6 years old now and seems to have most of her brain cells. We just let her sleep it off now, in the begining we thought it was going to kill her since it can if she has too much.

lol, sxi. To some of us, once or twice a week would be a blessing.
Posted by: Stevie W | October 27, 2006 at 09:07 AM
I could get along with Lady.
Posted by: Uncle Duke | October 27, 2006 at 09:08 AM
Maybe she was hoping one would turn into a (paw)prints.
Posted by: Stevie W | October 27, 2006 at 09:09 AM
I don't get it. I kind of thought my dog walked around in a stupor anyway, without any help from a toad or whatever. Why would a dog need drugs, to forget thier troubles? Please! My Dog can lick himself for God's sake, how hard could life be for him?

wonders how long a 12 step program would take in dog years.

a blast from the past...from a similar story...
Car lights are gone, nobody's home,
You don't want to gnaw a bone.
Your mouth pants, your tail shakes,
Another lick is what it takes!
You can't eat, don't wanna fetch
As dogs go, you're quite a wretch
Your throat is tight,can't find your bowl,
If there's no help soon, you're gonna howl!
You like to take a drink from the commode, oh yeah!
But it's closer to the truth to say that you'd sell your pups,
You're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to toads!

Tastes like chicken.
Posted by: Stevie W | October 27, 2006 at 09:37 AM
Was it an English sheepdog? An Irish setter? A Scottie?
Maybe he just liked toad-in-the-hole.
Posted by: Stevie W | October 27, 2006 at 09:38 AM
somebody should toss that dog a gumball.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | October 27, 2006 at 09:39 AM
My dog is an addict too. Only it involves chicken bones, the garbage can and an accomplice cat. I dunno - he doesn't seem any stupider though. I mean, then normal.

Once again, life imitates art, eh, Dave? Just watched Big Trouble again last night; love the toad business, but I liked the goats better.
BTW, for those who've only seen the movie - ya gotta read the book.

Reminds me of the episode in Family Guy where Peter Griffin starts a campaign to stop toad licking at Meg's school.
Lady better take this excellent advice: Remember, every time you lick a toad, you are licking every toad that toad has ever licked.
Posted by: vanityball | October 27, 2006 at 10:14 AM
My dog just licks balls.
Bouncy balls.
The kind you play with.
(Ok, this is not getting ANY better)

Snork at Insom, Siouxie & Stevie W!!! Oh, what the heck, snorks all around!

Another blast from the past - a poem by Mason Williams:
*clears throat*
Posted by: Ernie G | October 27, 2006 at 10:44 AM
And I thought Dave WJMTU! That is some REAL Big Trouble they got there!

Welcome to another meeting of T.A. We have a new member today.
"Hi. My name is Lady...and I'm a Toad Sucker."
Posted by: chuck | October 27, 2006 at 11:04 AM
much better than being a toe sucker...nttawwt
(actually there is much wrong with that)
*apologizes to the toe sucking community*
Posted by: Siouxie | October 27, 2006 at 11:07 AM
My dog Edward does this...well not exactly with toads...but if you replaced "toad" with "cat"...anyways the cat does NOT appreciate it.
Its on the list of the many things we hope to teach Edward not to do.

Back when Rush Limbaugh was funny, he use to have this routine about toad licking, wondering who discovered it. What was the first person who tried it thinking? Well, now we know that dogs probably figured it out and passed it on. Like Limbaugh, the whole people licking toads thing isn't that funny anymore.
Posted by: Brad | October 27, 2006 at 12:17 PM
Oh, come on, Beppie! Everyone here knows that everything The Blog writes is absolutely true!
(And I'm not just sucking
toadsup!)Chuck, shouldn't that be the TSA? Which gives airline security a whole 'nother meaning, eh?
