Pleasantly crunchy

An airline pilot
Is walking his dog
Along a canal towpath

Near Tring
In Hertfordshire.

A large fish
Pokes its head out of the water.

The dog
Barks at the fish.

With the airline pilot's permission,
The fish
Eats
The dog.

It is a Jack Russell terrier:
Pleasantly crunchy,

But rather dry
On the palate.

Pleasently crunchy,

Far from dry, I have always found the terrier a rather moist, if some what chewey comestible.
However from the point of view of a fish who takes his meals, in general, from a rather more saturated source, the terrier may be regarded as reletively dry and indeed some what crunchy, possibly pleasently so.
