Related Topics: Matt Painter

Have you heard the howling dog story? If not here is a quick synopsis; a man moves into his new home. Day after day he hears the neighbor dog howling. At first, he tries to ignore it but as time goes on his agitation grows.

Finally, he goes to his neighbor’s house to see the dog sitting on the porch howling while the neighbor sips coffee near by unbothered. He asks the neighbor, why does he keep howling?

The neighbor explains that the dog is sitting on nail. The man a little perplexed asks why the dog just doesn’t get up and move in which the neighbor responds because he isn’t in enough pain yet.
