An altogether different dog - the regulator - then gets on in the fight. In the dog-eat-dog world of business, negotiating to divide territories formally is filed under “anti-competitive practices”.

In western countries where there are few stray dogs, this is not a common sight but plenty in India, right? You know what happens after the dogs tire of circling each other, eyeing each other? They attack and get into a proper fight. One that has a winner and a loser (unless, hearing the kerfuffle that ensues, other dogs join the fray in which case, you cannot quite be sure who will win and who will not). Smarts matter. Not that I am suggesting that there are many Great Danes on Indian streets as vagabond dogs but a Great Dane usually does not win fights. Because it is stupid, large but stupid. A Staffordshire Bull Terrier however nearly always does. Until next time, no best friends, just acquaintances. ;-) “..Facebook and Google are warily circling each other..”.
