Quotes
-
Duke : I wish somebody spoke his language.

Rex : I used to sleep on a lamb's wool beanbag next to an electric space heater. That's my territory, I'm an *indoor* dog.
King : I starred in twenty-two consecutive Doggy Chow commercials. Look at me now, I couldn't land an audition.
Boss : I was the lead mascot for an undefeated high school baseball team.
[sneezes]
Boss : I lost all my spirit, I'm depressing.
Duke : I only ask for what I've always had, a balanced diet, regular grooming, and a general physical once a year.
Rex : I think I might give up.
Duke : What, right now?
Rex : Right now.
[turns around]

Duke : [sneezes, then turns to Boss and King] You heard the rumor, right? About Buster?
[All the four dogs murmur]
Boss : Who's Buster?
Duke : Uh, my brother from another litter.
King : What happened to him?
Duke : Suicide. Hanged himself by his own leash.
Boss : Aw, boy...

Chief : You hungry? Kill something and eat it.
[walks up to Duke]
Chief : You sick? Take a long nap.
[walks up to King]
Chief : You cold? Dig a hole in the ground, crawl into it, and bury yourself.
[walks up to Rex]
Chief : But nobody's giving up around here, and don't you forget it, ever. You're Rex. You're King. You're Duke! You're Boss! I'm Chief. We're a pack of scary indestructible alpha dogs. You're talking like a bunch of housebroken... pets.
Rex : You don't understand. Uh, how could you, I mean you're a...
Chief : Go ahead say it. I'm a stray, yeah.
