Danny and the Viking Funeral
I’m not too happy with humankind at the moment, but I’ll say hello anyway. My name is Danny. To my legions of fans I am known as Danny the Dog.
Today I want to talk about my human. His name is Andrew and he is a real idiot! Andrew wants a Viking funeral. Do you know what a Viking funeral consists of? I didn’t think so, and neither did I until Andrew opened his big yap!
When a Viking died, they put him on his boat, set it afire and pushed it out into the fjord. Oh . . . and one more thing, they killed his dog and laid him at the feet of the dead Viking just so the guy could have his dog with him in Valhalla!
I mean . . . what the hell? What had the poor pooch done to warrant a death sentence?
I had a talk with Andrew last night and told him that if I went first into the “good night,” then I too want a Viking funeral. His buddies should kill him and put him at my feet before they set the boat ablaze.
And guess what? Big surprise, he didn’t think that was such a good idea. So we agreed to just have a simple non-denominational service regardless of who goes first. But if he keeps up with this Viking funeral stuff, it will probably be him . . . I’ll make sure of it.
BTW: Anyone leaving a comment will hear from me, Danny the Dog, personally, as long as the comment states how wonderful and charming I am. And if you want to throw in what a great story teller I am, I won’t argue…Danny

Danny, dogs are people, too. You make sure that you get a reciprocal agreement. (I know a good lawyer.) 😉

That is such a barbaric custom, Danny… I am outraged! Erm… Did wives get the same treatment?
And yes you are wonderful and charming, but you’re also kind of cute and cuddly too. 😍💕

Thank you for the kind words. As far as I know the wives moved in with the viking’s best friend.

Danny the dog, the Viking funeral thing shouldn’t be the only thing that is reciprocal. I think it’s totally fair that, if your owner thinks you should be neutered, this should be a shared experience as well.

I’ve let Danny have the computer all day so he could answer the comments for his stupid story, but when he read me yours, I had to jump in. No offense, but Danny does not need any ideas in that direction. Thank you very much!
