Chet Baker is a bossy dog. Demon is not. Demon is our neighbordog. And Chet's been bamboozling him since he was a galumphy pup.

Chet will now demonstrate The Stare.

Dominant dog stares directly into subordinate dog's eyes. If the subordinate dog knows what he's doing, he looks away. Meeting The Stare is tantamount to starting a fight.

Demon doesn't want that. Even though he could eat Chet in two bites, he's completely bamboozled by the little Napoleon.

Please, please, don't beat me up. I'm backing slowly away from your magnificence.

As well you should. For I have a can of whoop-ass here and all I have to do is open it. And you don't want to know what's inside it, Demon. You don't want to know.
