"And I need at least one dog walking along beside me, even better, two, as I push my grocery cart east, across town, and then back. Without a dog or two beside me, I feel incomplete. I catch myself talking to one or the other even if they’re not there and then feel like an idiot."

-Martha Teichner, When Harry Met Minnie: A True Story of Love and Friendship

"Bull terriers are odd dogs. With their egg-shaped heads, slitty eyes, and pointy ears, they’re funny looking. Think Spuds MacKenzie or the Target dog. BTs are opinionated, exuberant, stubborn, extremely silly, and loving, but at times too smart for their own good. What does that say about bull terrier owners?"
