My uncle sent me this in an e-mail. He didn't say where he got it but I got a kick out of it.

Metropolis, TN - A new mother had just decided that it was time to wean her year old daughter and stopped breast-feeding her. Although this had been her first child, she had friends that had children and they all told her that weaning was a very difficult time and that the longer she waited the harder it would be. However, she found weaning to be easy. In fact, it seemed almost TOO easy. Her daughter hardly put up a fuss and in two weeks time she stopped trying to nurse altogether. Thinking this was strange, the mother started searching for the reason and soon discovered that another member of the family was still nursing her baby. This was strange because the only people that lived in the house were the mother, her husband, and their daughter. So who was nursing the baby? You can imagine the woman's reaction when she found her daughter feeding off THE FAMILY DOG! The dog, a rather large Dane cross breed had just recently lost her puppies when her owners decided it was time to give them away. However, the dog was still lactating and she had known the baby all her life, so she had no problem taking in this new "puppy." They should make a movie about this: "The Paw that Rocks the Cradle."

Yeah, that statue is actually of a wolf. The legend is, that the founders of Rome, Romulus and Remus were raised by a wolf.

I don't know if the urban legend is true, but I do know that my younger brother used to squeeze the nipples of our dog when she wasn't lactating but still had the large nipples. She would actually stop what she was doing and lay down on her side ALLOWING him to do this. If he wimpered like a puppy, she'd attack our other dog forcing him away. I think the legend could very well be true. At least I know dogs are willing to allow humans to "nurse" from them.
