24 things that are 100% true if you have a dog

  1. First of all, your camera roll is 99.9% just pics of your bb.
    It's not YOUR fault they're so photogenic!
  2. There is no such thing as privacy in your home - not when your dog's around, anyway.
    Also not your fault: the fact that your pup wants to be with you 24/7.
  3. You have full conversations with your dog, and you imagine what they'd say back (and what their voice would sound like).
    And you have a very clear idea of what your dog's voice sounds like, for the record.
  4. It's basically your dog's bed, but you're allowed to sleep in it.
    But we all know who really gets all the space in bed!

The Bath

I hear a sound that's familiar. No, I don't like it at all.
Droplets of water splashing like a deep woods waterfall.
It's coming from that room down the hallway. The one dad calls his retreat.
Where that fun roll of paper hangs on the wall and there is a handle on the back of the seat.

Here comes mom with that look in her eyes. This is not going to be fun.
I have only one option left. Excuse me while I take off and ruuuuuunnn!!
The kids are trying to catch me. Mom has her track shoes on too.
This event happens every time I roll around in deer poo!

An older, tired-looking dog wandered into my yard

An older, tired-looking dog wandered into my yard; I could tell from his collar and well-fed belly that he had a home and was well taken care of.
He calmly came over to me, I gave him a few pats on his head; he then followed me into my house, slowly walked down the hall, curled up in the corner and fell asleep.
An hour later, he went to the door, and I let him out.
The next day he was back, greeted me in my yard, walked inside and resumed his spot in the hall and again slept for about an hour. This continued off and on for several weeks.
Curious I pinned a note to his collar: 'I would like to find out who the owner of this wonderful sweet dog is and ask if you are aware that almost every afternoon your dog comes to my house for a nap.'
The next day he arrived for his nap, with a different note pinned to his collar: 'He lives in a home with 6 children, 2 under the age of 3 - he's trying to catch up on his sleep. Can I come with him tomorrow?'

Dog rules for humans

  1. Don’t come home smelling of other dogs.
  2. You must feed me every goodie you eat.
  3. Don’t call me or lead me to a bath.
  4. Let me outside even though I just came in, there was an area I forgot to sniff.
  5. I can sleep anywhere I choose even if it means you trip over me.
  6. Don’t shhh me from barking while you are on the phone, I heard the wind blowing the leaves.
  7. Don’t move me while sleeping sideways in the middle of the bed, you have enough room on the edge.
  8. Don’t think you can leave a room without me.
  9. If it lands on the floor, it’s MINE!
  10. You will never pee alone again.

Now I lay me

Now I lay me down to sleep
Mommies pillow under feet
Wrapped up in her patchwork quilt
Ready to lay on shivering guilt.
Mommy comes to climb into bed
Finds me in her place instead
She shifts my leaded body over
Climbs on in, pulls up the cover.

Dogs are from Mars; bitches are from Mercury

The bitch's strength's like that of ten because she is obsessed
with cat alerts and puppy poop and who is least and best.
But dogs are aimed at larger goals, like food and food and sex
and walks and quiet thoughts and time to be perplexed.

Walking the dog seems like fun to me

Dad said, The dog wants a walk.
 
Mum said to Dad, It's your turn
Dad said, I always walk the dog.
Mum said, Well I walked her this morning
Dad said, She's your dog -
I didn't want a dog in the first place
 
Mum said, It's your turn.
 
Dad stood up and threw the remote control
at the pot plant
Dad said, I'm going down the pub
Mum said, Take the dog

You know you're a dog person if ... (3)

  • you have a kiddie wading pool in the yard but no small children
  • Lintwheels are on your shopping list every week.
  • your freezer contains more dog bones than anything.
  • you hang around the dog section of your local bookstore way too often.
  • your non-dog friends won't eat food prepared in your kitchen.
  • your parents refer to your pet as their "grand-dog".
  • you have baby gates permanently installed at strategic places around the house but no babies.
  • you open your purse and that big bunch of baggies you use for pick-up pops out.
  • you skip breakfast so you can walk your dog in the morning before work.
  • The trash basket is more or less permanently installed in the kitchen sink, to keep the dog out of it while you're at work.
