My dog's better than your dog!
No way!
I've got a hairy dog
 |
 |
| Call that hairy? I've got a sheep dog. |
Sheep dog? Check out my cow dog. |
 |
 |
| Never heard of a cow dog. I've got a bull dog. |
What use is a bull dog? I've got a pig dog. |
 |
 |
| A pig dog? I bet it eats heaps. You bet! |
My dog's a whale dog. It can dive to the bottom of the sea. |
 |
 |
| I've got an elephant dog. It's got big ears and a trunk. |
My seal dog can balance a ball on the end of its nose. |
|
 |
| Good trick! My dog can play chess. |
Brainy? My dog does algebra. |
 |
 |
| Algebra is easy. My dog can knit. | Knit? My dog made these trousers. |
 |
 |
| My dog wears trousers. | Mine wears a hat. |
 |
 |
| Hey! Whose little dog are you? He's my little dog. What a nice little dog. |
He's just the same … … as my little dog. |
