Over the years, all of us in the MacDuff clan have developed a healthy respect for fly swatters. In other words, fly swatters are something to avoid like the plague! After all, we have watched Wen running around the house swatting at flies and we don’t want to get smacked by a piece of rubber on a handle that looks like it would sting!
Back in the day when Wen and her husband lived in Texas, pesky flies would come in the house through the patio door and the three dogs, Casey, Buffy, and Poo, would run for their lives when they saw Wen swatting at the flies and every Scottie since has had the same reaction.
Flies would make their way into Wen’s parents’ home in Missouri and her mom thought it was amusing that Corky and Duffy would run and hide behind the furniture when she got out the fly swatter. To us Scotties though, it is no laughing matter!
Fortunately, none of us dogs has ever actually been swatted, but none of us are going to stick around, just in case. We’ve seen the slappin’ and we’ve heard the smackin’ of the despicable fly swatter and we want nothing to do with it!
Run!!! Fly Swatter!!!
Uh-oh!
