🇮🇹 IGNAZIO E I DISPETTI – L’altro giorno, trotterellavo tranquillo per le vie del centro quando, all’improvviso, un ragazzino grandissimo (vi assicuro, pareva un gigante!) è comparso da dietro un’auto e ha iniziato a farmi i dispetti, tirandomi anche la coda! Dico, ma vi sembra? E poi io non gli avevo fatto proprio nulla! Ho tentato di ignorarlo, però lui insisteva… Al che, ho finto di scappare, zitto zitto sono tornato indietro e senza che lui mi vedesse… gli ho fatto la pipì su un piede. E poi via, a zampe levate! (Beh, che c’è? Nella vita serve sempre avere un osso nella manica!) – Ignazio🐾
🇺🇸 ACE & SPITE – The other day, I was trotting without a care in the world around the city center, when all of a sudden a really big kid (and let me assure you, he seemed like a giant!) appeared from behind a car, and started to do things to spite me, even pulling on my tail! I say, does that seem right to you? And I hadn’t done anything to him at all! I tried to ignore him, but he kept on doing it…. In the end, I pretended to run away, but…shhhhhhh!…I circled back, and without him seeing me…I peed on his foot. Then I ran away full speed ahead! (Well, so…?! You know what they say, “If you lie down with dogs, you get up with pee!”) – Ace🐾
