Thread: If I did not have Dogs..

  1. #1

    If I did not have Dogs..

    If I did not have Dogs...........


    1. I could walk around the yard barefoot in safety.

    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 rings, it wouldn't sound like the NCDL kennels.

    5. When the doorbell rings, I could get to the door without wading through
    dog bodies who beat me there.

    6. I could sit on the couch the way I wanted, without taking into
    consideration how much space several fur bodies would need to get
    comfortable.

    7. I would not have strange presents under my Christmas tree-like dog
    bones, stuffed animals or have to answer to people why I wrap them.

    8. I would not be on a first name basis with three vets.

    9. The most used words in my vocabulary would not be: "out", "sit",
    "down","come", "no", "stay", and "leave him/her/it ALONE".

    10. My house would not be cordoned off into zones with baby gates or
    barriers.

    11. My pockets would not contain things like poo bags, dog treats and an
    extra leash.

    12. I would no longer have to spell the words B-A-L-L or F-R-I-S-B-E- E or
    W-A-L-K or C-O-O-K-I-E-S.

    13. I would not have as many leaves INSIDE my house as outside.

    14. I would not look strangely at people who think having their ONE dog
    ties them down too much.

    15. I'd look forward to Spring and the melting of the snow instead of
    dreading "mud season".

    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.

    17. How empty my life would be....

    That is so cute. I had not seen this before but I think everyone of these
    could apply to me.

    Wow, I may as well confess, I related to nearly every single phrase on that list.

    Just think,

    I wouldn't have seperate wash clothes and towels for bathing dogs,I would gain extra cupboard space , furniture would not be covered with "blankets" or "Sheets", and, I shutter to think --- I could have cleaner windows in my car

    I hope I can always have a DOG, or , DOGS, or even CATS !!

    Now why would anyone want to live like that??? Lou Lou's next trick is going to be, put away her own toys! Sometimes it sure would be nice to be able to wear black without having to run out of the house before the dogs brush against you!
