RIVERSIDE DRIVE PHONE 275 Rom where I sit... itf Joe Marsh Pretty "Foxy" Terrier Talking about dogs the other night--and Sandy Johnson topped everything off with a tall story about his fox terrier, "Boscua." According to Sandy, "Comes bird season and that dog won't stir if I take down my rifle. Same if it's deer season and I go for my thotgun--he won't move, but he's scratching at the door if I so much as look at my rifle I" One day, Sandy decided to fool him. He took down both his shot- ' gun and his rifle -- and, swish, Boscum was on his way! So Sandy put the guns back and took out his fishing rod. He went outside and there was Boscum--digging like crazy for worms! From where I sit, a (log that can outguess humans is as tare as a human that can outguess other humans. For instance, 1 like a glass of beer with lnncH_ but I wouldn't think of pouring you one without first asking. Everybody has preferences--and it's finding out what they are and respecting them that keeps freedom from "going to the dogs."
