If I didn't have dogs:
1) I could walk around safely barefoot in the dark;
2) My house could be carpeted instead of tiled and
laminated;
3) All flat surfaces, clothing, furniture and cars would be free
of dog hair;
4) When the doorbell rang, it wouldn't sound like the
SPCA kennels;
5) When the doorbell rang, I could get to the door
without wading thru four or five dog bodies who beat
beat me there;
6) I could sit how I wanted to on the couch without
taking into consideration where several little
furbodies would need to get;
7) I would not have strange presents under my tree
....like dog bones, stuffed animals and have to answer
to people why I wrap them up;
8) I would not be on a first name basis with a vet;
9) Most used words in my vocabulary would not be:
potty, outside, sit, down, come, no, and leave
him/her ALONE;
10) My house would not be cordoned off into zones
with baby gates;
11) My purse would not contain things like poop pick
up bags and dog treats;
12) I would no longer have to spell the words B-A-L-L,
T-R-E-A-T-S, O-U-T-S-I-D-E, and F-R-I-S-B-E-E;
13) I would not buy weird things to stuff into 'kongs'
or have to explain why I'm buying them, or what a
"kong" is;
14) I would not have as many leaves and Pine Straw INSIDE my
house as outside;
15) I would not look strangely at people who think
having their ONE dog ties them down too much;
16) I would not have to answer the question why do I
have so many dogs from people who will never have the
joy
in their life of knowing they are loved unconditionally
by
something as close to an angel as they will ever get.
Who else has a
friend who considers you the MOST important thing in
the whole wide
world all the time
