2 hair of the dog

"Dog hair", drink for a hangover. There is a medieval belief that the only true remedy for a dog bite, which can also protect against any infection, is a mixture of milk and bread with the addition of the hair of the bitten animal, which must be eaten or applied to the wound. Some people believe that drinking alcohol in the morning after an evening drink will cure a hangover. This is called hair of the dog. It is not scientifically proven that all these remedies are effective.

Well, apparently it comes from the phrase "the hair of the dog that bit me". It "s a reference to a medieval belief that when someone was bitten by a dog with the disease rabies, they could be cured by putting the same dog"s hair onto the infected wound. Let's hear examples of how to use this expression in today's The English We Speak.

Well, apparently it comes from the phrase "the fur of the dog that bit me."

Talkin' jivey, poison ivy
You ain't gonna cling to me
Man taker, born faker
I ain't so blind I can't see
