So one of the knights of old was riding in a horrible rainstorm. He had to get an urgent message to the king so he rode on and finally his horse could not go any further. He stopped at a little Inn about 15 miles from the King's Castle. He went in and told the innkeeper his problem. The innkeeper said no one had a horse in the area. The thunderstorm was raging outside and the knight saw a very big dog that was matted and looked pretty nasty in the corner. He was so desperate that he asked the innkeeper if he could borrow the dog to finish his journey. The innkeeper said...

"I would never send a knight out on a dog like this".
