You can’t teach an old dog new tricks

You can’t teach an old dog new tricks is an idiomatic expression that suggests that people are comfortable doing things the way they have always done them. For example:

A teacher who has used one method of teaching reading is reluctant to change to another method.
People with little or no computer experience have a hard time adapting to computerization.
A business man who accustomed to a wearing a suit and tie may be uncomfortable in a casual environment.

oh ok thx btw, do you know how the rankings work?

The ranking are based strictly on the number of posts. 25 = Junior Member, 50 = Member, 100 = Senior Member, 6218 = Obsessed

would that be like you? obsessed?

Pretty much. How about you?

nope not as much

I have had dogs all my life, and have always been able to teach them new things, even after they are over 10+ years.  Perhaps dogs are more adaptable than humans.

A case of mistaken anthropomorphism!

would love a dog but travel too much, maybe one day!

My current one is a “dear’.  You can see her picture on “My Profile” under avatar.

You could try staying at kennels instead on hotels.

I would love to have a dog. Let’s just say that the time is not right.

You’ll be dead waiting for the “right” time.
