[14:48] Jago Constantine: It's a german police dog show
[14:48] Simeon Beresford: mot seen it
[14:48] Haptic Heliosense: I thought when it first started "wow, this guy's a terrible reader. Then I I had my "oh, duh" moment when he gave the first hint about liking the window rolled down
[14:48] Jago Constantine: hehe
[14:49] Cipher Grayman: you'd think panting would have been mentioned
[14:49] Jago Constantine: I'd heard it before, but I still had a little trouble tuning into the fast paced read
[14:49] Simeon Beresford: he was enthusiastic
[14:49] Jago Constantine: yeah :)
[14:49] Haptic Heliosense: He did a great job on the whole Doggy Attitude thing
[14:50] Zobeid Zuma: I also had that moment when I wondered what was wrong with him, but I figured it out pretty quick. :)
[14:50] Haptic Heliosense: <-- dog person, despite the ears and tail

[14:51] Jago Constantine: I think an enhanced brain, but also with a cap which allows him to be controlled
[14:51] Jago Constantine: cya sora thanks :)
[14:51] Sora Bluebird: thank you, enjoy
[14:52] Haptic Heliosense: Interesting how the author touched on conflicing politics and yet didn't give any tidy answers
