Droolofdenial<\/strong>: \/drool of de ny al<\/em>\/ When Jack Russell ran into Germaine Shepherd at the Greyhound Bus Depot, he had been walking his hound, Fido. Fido immediately jumped all over Germaine and slobbered all over her face. She shouted at Jack to Puli him off her. Jack tried valiantly but said, “Sorry, he’s just friendly…he has so much love to give, like me! You are such a pretty Lassie!” Germaine unleashed her fury and demanded that Jack & Fido’s adoration be harnassed. To calm Germaine, he invited her into the nearest pub, “The Dirty Dog” for a hair of the dog that bit her. She told the bartender, “I’ll Havanese…no, make it a double!” Jack ordered a Scotch Terrier and soda. “Muzzle Tov!”, he said and they had a few more. “Jack”, she said, “You are not such a bad breed, but you need to send Fido to obedience school”. When he objected, she told him she was not usually a Pointer, but he was in a Droolofdenial and that if he wanted to see her again, he’d have to obey. Well, our Jack tried many schools, he even went as far away as Labrador, Newfoundland, the Great Pyrenees, even Afghanistan, Lhasa Apso, Chihuahua and Brittany. But none could train his Fido not to drool. He had run away for months. He even prayed to Saint Bernard for guidance. Finally, he returned to the pub and was panting when he saw Germaine,looking fetching in her Poodle skirt, eating Beagles & Lox and drinking Bassett Ale. When he went over to Retriever, he saw that she was curled up with a Husky Boxer, a Great Dane named Erik, who was eating his Chow with a Pinscher salt,some Collieflour and some Maltese candies. He was also taking a Pekingnese at her Schnauzer with his Bischon Frise, his Mastiff, as he tried to Whippet out. Russell thought it disgusting and trotted over to mark his territory. “Oh, Jack”, she said, “Don’t be Samoyed… what you felt was only Puppy Love for me, what I love about Erik is that he is a Rover, not a Setter, the best Keeshond I’ve had and he won’t Stay unless I want him to!” Jack slinked out of the pub, with his tail between his legs, saying, “That Bitch, I’m so past Cairn! I don’t give a Rin Tin Tin for her” Etymology:<\/em> drool (slobber, saliva spilling from the mouth,pretentious or silly talk or writing) & denial ((psychiatry) a defense mechanism that denies painful thoughts;the act of refusing to comply (as with a request);the act of asserting that something alleged is not true) & Jewel of The Nile (for rhyming effect)(a popular 1985 Michael Douglas\/Kathleen Turner\/Danny DeVito movie whose tagline was “When the going gets tough, the tough get going”.

Great K9 tail. Tell Jack Russell that Afghani Stan is full of kabul. By the way, where did Din go?<\/p>\n

Profaunation<\/strong>: \/pro-FAW-nay-shun<\/em>\/ Eleanor lunged backwards as Fido’s attentions elevated from a friendly tail wag to intense profaunation. As though talking to Jed wasn’t difficult enough, with his intense staring and too-friendly shoulder rubs and sneaky thigh touches, now his dog was invading her space. Feeling violated, Eleanor exclaimed to Jed, “Help! Your dog is trying to kiss me!” Jed snickered, and grabbed Fido’s leash. “Down Fido! Down!” he exclaimed. “Sorry,” he said, halfheartedly. “He’s just very friendly.” Eleanor wondered what else Fido and Jed had in common… Etymology:<\/em> PROFANATION: the act of profaning; desecration; defilement; debasement (PROFANE: to misuse something that should be held in reverence or respect) + FAUNA: the animals of a given region or period considered as a whole Created by:<\/em> airlie.<\/p>\n

Terrific.<\/p>\n

PROFAWNATION’s nice- but it could be misinterpreted as a nation populated by professional adolescent whitetail deer…..?
\nWhich are SURE to be chased by……FIDO!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Fidodidoes<\/strong>: \/Fye – doe – DYE – doze<\/em>\/ The overly friendly and boisterous fidodidoes of his dog, Charlie, when visitors came around, had caused great consternation for Worthington and had even gotten to the point where he was considering getting rid of Charlie or abandoning his desire to entertain friends and coworkers. Etymology:<\/em> Blend of Fido (generic dog name) and didoes (mischievous tricks; pranks; antics) Created by:<\/em> Mustang.<\/p>\n

FIDODIDOES is very creative. But why restrict ourselves to criticism of canine-americans? This smacks of rampant specieism.
\nLove the word, though.
\nGood work, MUSTANG!<\/p>\n

fun to say<\/p>\n

Very interesting combination.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Faunagaffe<\/strong>: \/FA-NUH-GAF<\/em>\/ Rescued from an animal shelter in her youth, KATIECAT returned my affection by killing a rabbit and bringing it home. The neighborhood children were grossed out by this feline FAUNAGAFFE, but they’re sure to experience many more examples of misguided animal behavior as they grow up.

True story-exceeded only by the boorish behavior of irresponsible pet owner apologists whose permissive approach to animal discipline results in the alarming rise of leg-humping incidents, pit bull attacks and random neighborhood defecation incidents.\n<\/p>\n

verbotomists really struck a nerve with all the FIDO references today – we are into the dogdays of summer though so not surprising you would get so dogmatic about it – love your word btw<\/p>\n

Nosila<\/a><\/strong>, 2008-07-05: 00:16:00<\/em>
Metro, do you really want us to BIRDen you with CATastrophic tails of PETophilia? As a proud owner of many species, we all know that the little rascals are capable of many ASPects of antihuman social behavior.I could get HORSE talking about my experiences on this animal planet, but truly dogs do drool the most, even though hamsters are gnawty, guinea pigs squeal on you, bunnies carrot not a bit about your feelings, turtles are shell-shocked, lizards lounge at will and fish annoy you just for the halibut. Budgies won’t budge, canaries sing to the authorities and cats, well they’d be good poker players, not a shred of emotion shown on their smug faces. But keep up the good words…we are all fauned of you!\n <\/p>\n

Seems like Katiecat’s faunagaffe is largely fawnagaffe. Another top word.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
