I fink you all duz kno that no matter where dogs is in the werld we do all be enjoyin a common currency wot be Noms (or the Nom, as we call it in hai finance)...
A Nom: denommynayshun one Bone
A longs time ago, all the dogs did agree dat no dog would be takin too many Noms for theyselves in order to protect the value of every dog's Nom....
Braney dog say "gets only wot you need"
...and they was makin rools wot every fur had to follow in order to keep some order to fings...
Always in faver of sensibull rools
...but nature bein nature not every fur was playin by the rools (probbly cats...or squirrels)....leadin to some doggies mebbe tellin fibs about wot they been up to...
Munee? I dussnt got your munnee....
...and this was bein ignored by peeple who find it convenient to look da other way...and becos some doggies was werkin hard....
Ello for you...welcome to Noms Inc....ow may I be of serviss?
....and able to prodoose a lot of stuff and be sellin it....
......this make peeple fink that all doggies was welffy and so they did be lendin even more munee to dogs wot could not rilly afford to be borrowin it.....
..but you dusnt be able to blame just banker doggies cos ovver doggies was askin for lots of Noms at the same time when they dint rilly ave munee to repay it....
Wot? Just a few essenshull items...
Oh, hai...got 0% finance....k?

....and them doggies did be gettin a bit fat an lazy and wasnt werkin for wot they got....
Hai.....pull up a chair.....boss is out for a meetin....
Bizee....another doggie will serve you...
...and this lead to the bones you once had....
...bein werff a bit less than you fort they was.....
Down to last bone..pleez send elp...
...and now dogs is avin to do wivout access to lots of Noms....
...and is losin they jobs and wonderin where they next meals is comin from....

Lola much smaller than me....faces changed to protect suspects (*Lola)
Pleez note: bigger dog avin trubble wiv access...(*Marley)
...and I has suggested to magystrates that it iz more likley some local ruffians be in there....
Cat burglars...
