John Ronald Reuel Tolkien. Farmer Giles of ham (№ 443522)

Garm did not even speak vulgar Latin, but, like most dogs of that time, he knew how to use the rough common language to bully, show off and flatter. He bullied the beggars and passers-by, who happened to wander into a foreign land, boasted to other dogs, and flattered and sucked up to his master.
