Thank you @TheresaV
Pleased you enjyed the quiz.
Had you given "wolves" as the answer instead of "dogs" you would have got a Red Thinker.
Hope you like the questions in today`s WRQ quiz which is now up on a separate thread and might get a Thinker this time ???
Wishful thinking I believe @Mi-Amigo as today's looks a bit tricky to me too but I shall stay strong and hopeful as I need to beat @LukasB this time for sure or otherwise he will be bragging for the rest of the month
