[nagdu] Does Your Dog Bite?

[Larry D. Keeler]

Of course, if they really want to know instead of being facious, I explain 
that they're animals!  Under normal circumstances, no, they don't bite but 
if the situation becomes stressful, all bets are off!  I am actually 
surprised that our dogs put up with so much!  kids poking at them, people 
yelling at them and all manner of human outragousness.
