Normally, I would think K9P stood for Canine Patrol, but on Google they suggested "Canine Pee." LOL

Hello Carolyn ... you got me; I'd never heard of 'Canine Patrol' but 'Canine Pee' is commonly used as a substitute for weak beer. I see you did get a chuckle though Carolyn - thank you - Lindsay

Only K9 I know of was sidekick of 4th Doctor Who and he couldn't P. Another gem from across the ditch. A shame both sides have drawbridges up but at least poetry is still getting across. Regards David

G'day David ... yes, so true David. Here in Victoria, we're like lepers as far as the other states are concerned with covid control. At least a T20 cricket series is on, but it's good we can communicate in rhyme - Lindsay

I often see police cars with K9 warning there are dogs in their cars, so the P is pee. Canine pee. Very clever Lindsay, I presume you know what FOS stands for? Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
