A colleague has a friend* with unusual ideas about her dog. She is certain that her dog is a virgin.
My colleague is not sure that his friend can know about her dog's chastity. The dog, after all, goes to a doggie daycare four days per week @ $40/day. Anything could happen.
His friend claims that the folks at the doggie daycare are diligent in making sure that no doggies slip off to a broom closet or to an empty bedroom. My colleague is skeptical.
His friend further claims that her dog would never do such a thing. She seems to impute moral virtue to chaste dogs. Did anyone have such odd thoughts a century ago or is this silliness a modern affliction?
----------------------
*Well, not exactly a friend. The two of them probably disagree on that point, with my colleague certain that they are not friends.

About Me
- John Arkwright
- Southern, United States
- John's mother paid for his birth by digging potatoes during the final stages of her pregnancy; his father was in a body cast due to a train wreck. Mom recited The Raven to put John to sleep at night. The soles of his feet were thick and hard from going barefoot for eight months per year; his back was tanned from going shirtless. He loved to read fantasy and science fiction. John completed a PhD in economics from the University of South Carolina. He has published research on the economics of terrorism, education, gambling, corporate incentives, and other topics. John married Julia about the time he earned his first degree. They now live in a small southern mountain town with their three sons. John works hard to show his students how they can use rational decision making to enrich their lives. Julia works hard to raise three sons and an aggravating husband. John writes speculative fiction. He was published in Writers of the Future, Volume 27. Julia, the world's most voracious reader, edits his work. His mother is now deceased. His hero is his father, Scotty.
