The ads that appear, unsolicited, at the top of my blog page had me guessing this time. Without exception, they all concerned themselves with stuff to do with promoting puppy training. Puppy training? Where the hot diggidy dog did that come from?
I can understand that reference to a place, say New York City, may generate a bag full of hotel sites, or flight promotions. Mention of a medical condition could stir up a rash of remedies - cure-all pills, potions or lotions. The same could apply to an unguarded, fatuous remark concerning one’s weight. As to a careless whisper regarding problems in the bedroom department, those Viagra vendors need no encouragement to serve up the spam.
So what, I wondered, had triggered this mysterious preoccupation with pets of the canine kind. A search through my recent blogs soon sniffed out the link. It was, of course, the title of a Cat Stevens’ song, ‘I love My Dog’. This led me to wonder if similar animal references would engender a reciprocal response. There’s only one way to find out: ‘Buffalo Soldiers’, ‘Cool For Cats’, ‘The Lion Sleeps Tonight’, ‘Running Bear’, ‘Hungry Like The Wolf’, ‘Rattlesnake Shake’, ‘Boris The Spider’, ‘A Horse With No Name’, ‘Fly Like An Eagle’, ‘Piggies’. Ok, I’ll stop now.
