Big Ang Mos, Big Dogs

I'm been running in my estate. And I'm seeing many big ang mos (Hokkien for 'red-hair'. A pejorative term used to describe Caucasians, from the Coxford Singlish Dictionary) with big dogs.

So I'm asking why big ang mos have big dogs? I did see a small ang mo with a chihuahua, a la Paris Hilton, but I'm not going to ask that question today. Ditto for - why small rich ang mos make sex videos?

Back to the question.

Why big ang mos have big dogs?

Possible answers:

1) People like their pets to have similar characteristics with them. Active people like active dogs. Lazy people like lazy dogs. Ugly people like poodles. So - Big people like big pets. Small people like small pets. And since Big Ang Mo usually live in big houses (my estate, at least) so they can have big dogs. Big Cheena/Mat/Mama usually live in smaller flats so cannot afford to have big dogs. Instead, some keep their pets, usually exotic birds, at places like Geylang and Deskar Road.

2) Big Ang Mos live in big house, need watchdog that can bite and kill foreign invaders.

3) Big Ang Mos stay in small country short time. Must have dog with resale value so can profit from it when leaving. Small dog hard to sell and low price. Big dog can sell to security companies and revocationalized to become guard dogs.

4) Big Ang Mos use big dogs to impress small local chicks which generally like them big.

5) Big Ang Mos miss their big countries very much, hug these big fellas to sleep when their (hairy) wives not around.

I've run out of reasons so if you have one, let me know. I apologize for my grammar today. Visiting the Coxford Dictionary is not a good idea before writing.

Haa.. this is an interesting entry. Ang Mohs like big dogs coz they usually live in D9/10 where there are lots of traffic.. so keeping a bigger dog reduces the risk of their dog being run over by cars. Haaa...
BTW, BIG DOGS LIKE GOLDEN RETREIVER & HUSKY RULES. Poodles are pathetic.. they shiver when u go near them.. :p Ironically, cat lover.

i agree.. never liked small dogs anyway. they are noisy and hyperactive. but poodles are actually the 2nd most intelligent breed around! guess who's the dumbest? .... bulldogs.
