So, Ludwig once missed an entire week of meetings.

You may wonder what made GERMANY, out of all people, do that.

Well, you see, Ludwig adopted a stray dog.

But then he saw another one.

And he adopted that one too.

But then he saw another one.

And-

Well, you get the idea.

He ended up adopting more than was, erm, considered normal.

Let's not specify the number.

He doesn't regret it at all, his only regret is not being allowed to keep all of them.
