You see, Pige, when you’re footloose and collar-free, well, you take nothing but the best.
There’s a great big hunk of world down there with no fence around it. Where two dogs can find adventure and excitement. And beyond those distant hills, who knows what wonderful experiences? And it’s all ours for the taking, Pige. It’s all ours.
Open up your eyes.[Tramp]Open my eyes?[Lady]To what a dog’s life can really be.[Tramp]
One for every day of the week. The point is, none of them have me.[Lady: Haven’t you a family?]
I know. That’s what makes it fun.[Lady: But we shouldn’t.]
Aunts. Cats. Muzzles. Well, that’s what comes of tying yourself down to one family.

A human heart has only so much room for love and affection. When a baby moves in, the dog moves out.
