Why is it that I have a dog?

[Bo B Bunny]

Thursday: Cook nice thick, sirloin burgers on the grill for dinner. Three of us eat dinner and there are 3 burgers left - Lexi was out with a friend but coming home soon.

We had just finished eating and my son was going to place the left-overs in the fridge........ Oh no, the dog got up to the counter and stole/ate those three steak-burgers...

:X

A short time ago: I went to bed around 12:30 a.m. It's currently 4:40 a.m. Why am I up? because my dog was doing the pee-pee dance next to my bed, nails on the hardwood floor, until I got out of bed about an hour or so ago......

I let her out. It's rained and soggy outside. That means muddy paws. She is trained that she goes in her crate when she comes in - until she dries off and I tell her ok....

Just now: I heard the dog jump down from my bed andwalk in here to jump onto the sofa........ She didn'thave time to dry/demud.......

:banghead

Yeah, until they come over to you and lay their head in your lap and gaze into your eyes... My husband makes a bigger mess than both dogs combined and I still keep him... and he hasn't layed his head in my lap or gazed into my eyes in 20 years!

 

[Bo B Bunny]

yeah..... I think that's why. LOL!

:roflmao:My husband is a LOT more work than the four rabbits I have right now. He is definately not low maintenance.

LOL!! This had me completely cracking up. How true! Usually when any of my dogs do something naughty, they always redeem themselves.... with my husband, not so much

ahhh the love of a dog even after they have gotten your bed muddy and stole dinner

Bo B Bunny asks a good question. At least for me today when it's been 10 straight days of my toy fox terrier, Madeline, waking me up at 4:30am whining, crying, and generally being a nuisance. Does she have to go out? No. Does she need anything? No. Of course not. She just thinks it's time to play, play, play. And if I don't get up she comes up on my bed and sticks her tongue in my ear - repeatedly!

But then she looks at me with those sweet puppy eyes and I melt. She has had me wrapped around her little paw since the first night I had her. No one else sleeps in my bed, but Madeline gets her own snuggly blankie along with being in mine with me! She's a princess, but she's my princess and I love her more than words could ever say.

Why is it we have dogs? Ha! I think the question should more appropriately be why do our dogs have us?!

I dunno about dogs.. but I for one am thankful my mom splurged and got me the high dollar Ralph Lauren Home collection place mats for my kitchen table, otherwise the cat would have nowhere to lick his butt.

Why is it you have a dog?



Easy - if you wereever to lose control and pee on the floor, you have a perfect scapegoat.

:laugh:That's so real! Cats find the most expensive and gawd awful place to lick their butts!

How about sitting all comfy and nestled down in my coffee filters? I go to make my coffee in the morning, and my filters are all full of hair-and particles of cat litter!!

My new puppy, Bonnie, has about $50 worth of toys laying all over the living room right now. More dog toys than kid toys, for that matter. Anyway, what is she chewing on? One of her toys? Nope. She went and got one of my slippers out of my closet.
