: Does anyone know what this means if you say that you have enough to cobble dogs with I mean who would really want to cobble their dog cobble means to mend but I would be interested to know, this a discussion we are having at work, we are really buay here

Just a hunch, but I don't think anyone is suggesting making shoes out of dogs. It seems likely, though I can't find a sitation, that "cobble" refers to cobblestone, not footwear. Hence, having "enough dogs to cobble" would be having enough dogs to pave the road. As a member of PETA and the ASPCA, I find this troubling.
