The best dog in Adair County? Whats-his-name, by far

Doesn't care what you call him, as long as you call him to eat. A perfect dog. He already knows all he wants to know. At left, Doug with the Wonder Dog

By Ralph Waggener
A man with a perfect right to be proud of his grand-dog

My son, Doug Waggener, has a Great dog that would put Jr. Stotts, Tommy Grider, Prof Reed, and Johnny Vaughn's dogs to shame.
First off, he came from the Dog Pound; so, low cost. He is low maintenance in that he goes to the woods behind the house to relieve him self and does not need a bath.



You can call him to come eat in 13 different languages and he will come; he will answer your call to eat whether you call him Brown, Red or Bandit; he doesn't mind what you call him as long as you have something to eat.

At South Central Printing, where he spends his week days, he is much better at greeting customers with a smile (yes, this dog can smile) than any Wal-Mart greeter.

His favorite food is Bologna - or as we call it here "Adair County Round Steak"' but he will eat some regular dog food if it is a good brand and if he sees he will not get any Bologna.

Now, ole Red, Brown or Bandit whatever you call him doesn't want to be bothered by people wanting him to do tricks. He only wants everyone to pet him and will lean in against anyone who will pet him no matter who they are; he likes everyone; well, almost. He doesn't care much for Bill the cat, but will tolerate him some.

Tricks??? No he doesn't do tricks, so you don't have to spend a lot of time training him because he does "friendly" and that about all.

So Jr., Johnny and Tommy and Prof Reed, eat your heart out because Bandit has to be the best darn dog in all Adair County. Spend your time training, if you must - but Doug's Wonder Dog Bandit already knows all he wants to know and that is "Is it time to eat?".
