Take personal responsibility. A lot of people go, 'Well, I'll get a dog because I have a kid and a kid needs a dog.' And it doesn't work out for that dog and the dog is on the street.
I'm not into animal rights. I'm only into animal welfare and health. I've been with the Morris Animal Foundation since the '70s. We're a health organization. We fund campaign health studies for dogs, cats, lizards and wildlife. I've worked with the L.A. Zoo for about the same length of time. I get my animal fixes!
During the Depression, my dad made radios to sell to make extra money. Nobody had any money to buy the radios, so he would trade them for dogs. He built kennels in the backyard, and he cared for the dogs.
I go out to the kitchen to feed the dog, but that's about as much cooking as I do.
People who don't like cats haven't been around them. There's the old joke: dogs have masters, cats have staff.
Literally it’s the precise moment when dog doo turns white, but in general it refers to the type of person you don’t want to share your hoogencogles with.
Hot dogs and Red Vines and potato chips and French fries are my favorite foods.
Oh, I don't need sleep. I just went to my hotel room and had a cold hot dog and a vodka on the rocks.
I have my golden retriever now, Pontiac. He's a career-change guide dog from Guide Dogs for the Blind.
The bottom line is, I'm blessed with good health. On top of that, I don't go around thinking 'Oh, I'm 90, I better do this or I better do that.' I'm just Betty. I'm the same Betty that I've always been. Take it or leave it.
When I pontificate, it sounds so, you know, Oh, well, she's preaching. I'm not preaching, but I think maybe I learned it from my animal friends. Kindness and consideration of somebody besides yourself. I think that keeps you feeling young. I really do.
I don't care who anybody sleeps with,
I have the backbone of an eel.
Kindness and consideration of somebody besides yourself. I think that keeps you feeling young. I really do.
