Interview with our Dog

A few questions for Obi while on a hike:
Me: I couldn't help notice that you have this disturbing tendency to seek out and smell...well, let's call it manure. Why?

Obi: Why do you spend so much time trying to figure things out?

Me: I don't know, why?

Obi: Because humans have the best brains on earth. So that's what you do, you use your brains. We, on the other hand, have the best noses. I ask you: Have you ever heard of drug-sniffing humans? Drug-sniffing cats? Drug-sniffing rhinos?

Me: No I have not.

Obi: That's 'cuz humans use their strength and dogs use theirs. Wait-a-sec - oh joy! - I think I just found some scat!
