The saying "A dog that doesn't go out does not find a bone" is an expression used by the grandfather to emphasize the importance of action and initiative in the pursuit of opportunities or achievements. In its meaning, it suggests that if a person or a dog (in the original context) doesn't venture out or move from its home, it's less likely to find what it needs or desires (its bone, its food); it's a metaphor that highlights the importance of action and exploring challenges in life.

Although if you've read this far, I can tell you with more confidence that grandfather used this saying every time you asked him: Hey grandpa, where are you going? He always responded indignantly, with this peculiar saying, opening his eyes wide, raising his eyebrows, and with an angry yet kind expression. Once he said the saying, he would turn and leave just like a dog that, when it goes out, you don't know where it will go.

And just like a dog must move to find its bone, we must go out to seek life and its opportunities. We hope that this shirt inspires you to keep searching and reaching for your dreams!
