OMG, what a HILARIOUS pic that is!

It is the perfect illustration to go along with the following excerpt from a book called "The Dog Rules (Damned Near Everything)" by William J. Thomas. (You can read more about this priceless book at http://www.williamthomas.ca/the-dog-rules.shtml)



The Dog Rules (as they apply to the family car)

Rule 1: Dogs are not allowed to travel in motorized vehicles. Period.

Rule 2: Okay, a seeing-eye dog is allowed to travel in a vehicle with its owner, provided that the owner is not the operator of said vehicle.

Rule 3: Okay, in a medical emergency, a dog may be taken directly to and from a veterinary clinic in a moving vehicle.

Rule 4: Okay, if the family’s out for a Sunday drive, the dog can go along, provided he sits in the back seat. But on Sundays only!

Rule 5: Okay, the dog can sit in the front seat on the passenger side, provided there is no passenger in that seat. And if it’s really hot, he can roll the window down, but not all the way.

Rule 6: Okay, the dog can hang out the side window like a misplaced hood ornament going 60mph, with saliva spraying the passengers in the back seat.

Rule 7: The dog is never, repeat, NEVER allowed to operate a moving vehicle. That would be insane.

Rule 8: Okay, the dog can sit on the driver’s lap with his paws on the steering wheel, but he’s not allowed to put his foot on the accelerator.

Rule 9: Okay, the dog can steer the car and work the pedals, but he’s not allowed to drive at night or take the car out alone.

Rule 10: Okay, the dog can drive at night by himself, but not if he’s been drinking. No way. That’s against the law.
