"lets introduce the dogs, the first is the bitch.."

i didn't know that the word bitch is no used as a demeaning term in england.

@dudeyy399 well here in the good ole UK a male dog is a dog and his female counterpart is a bitch, always has been and still is. It can OCCASSIONALLY be used as a derogatory term for a woman who is not very nice as well.What do you guys call a female dog then? A MRS DOG LOL?

[dudeyy399]

@K9TMD we just call a female dog a "female dog" in the states. I guess we americans are too used to referring that word to a woman that we forget that the term bitch isn't really a bad word in most occasions.

@dudeyy399 Yeah, we all seem to be so aware of political correctness I guess

I just remembered, the "fella with glasses"....Mark Curry?

Rio is the sire of a pup I imported from the UK who was out of Kaneeka (de la Tour Chandos breeding).

Not one bit! The funny thing is Barni, Migoe and Rio are all Flynn's great, great grandparents. I never imagined that 22 years ago.

Thought I'd never see this clip again.:D It's entirely Blue Peter's fault I became obsessed with TMs.
