Thought you all might enjoy this

The following was found posted very low on a refrigerator door of a dog owners house:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Dog,

The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The
other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw print in the
middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the
slightest.

The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Racing me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run.

I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry
about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort, however. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other, stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out on the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.

For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom! If, by
some miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is
not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an attempt to open the door. I must exit through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years -canine/feline attendance is not required.

The proper order for kissing is: Kiss me first, then go smell the other
dog or cat's behind. I cannot stress this enough.

Finally, in fairness, dear pets, I have posted the following message on the front door:

TO ALL NON-PET OWNERS WHO VISIT AND LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT OUR PETS:


(1) They live here. You don't.
(2) If you don't want their hair on your clothes,
stay off the furniture. That's why they call it 'fur'-niture.
(3) I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.
(4) To you, they are animals.
To me, they are adopted sons/daughters who are short,
hairy, walk on all fours and don't speak clearly.

Remember, dogs and cats are better than kids because they:

(1) eat less,
(2) don't ask for money all the time,
(3) are easier to train,
(4) normally come when called,
(5) never ask to drive the car,
(6) don't hang out with drug-using people,
(7) don't smoke or drink,
(8) don't want to wear your clothes,
(9) don't have to buy the latest fashions,
(10) don't need a gazillion dollars for college, and
(11) if they get pregnant, you can sell their children

Stan;
Great.

Mikhail7;
Sorry, Two methods of Identification for dogs, one is Microchip, the other is AKC number Tattooed to their belly.
I'm a former breeder and strill have my ex-wifes tattoo gun. We never used it, but rather preferred the microchips.

Yeah, but the tattoos aren't their ideas. It's a decision made for them. It's not a status thing among them.

(13) Always happy to see you.
(14) Never criticize the TV shows you watch.
(15) Always happy to just hang out with you.

Our German Shepherd has a tattoo and a microchip. And a big fenced yard to chase squirrels in.

On the other hand,
The most annoying things dogs DO accomplish.....

1. Chew on your clothes.
2. Eat your shoe laces.
3. Eat things they shouldn't, like electrolytic capacitors.
4. Steal food from the other dog.
5. Jump all over when excited.
6. Chase after bugs, and, other animals.

7. Get in a fuss, and, decide to disobey you.
8. Fight with your other pet.
9. Tear up your newspaper so they can lay on it.
10. Steal your sandwitch off the kitchen table while you are still making your meal.

Dogs.... You gotta love 'em!....

"My friends used to keep saying I had batts in my belfry. No. I'm just hearing bells....."

Bill Cahill

Well, I let Diamond out in back yard today for two hours. I then took a brand new hard rubber ball I bought for her outside in hopes of playing catch with her.
She ran around the yard with it several times. I kept calling her. She deposited it who knows where?, and, came back, and, ran in the house.
She got a very long drink of water, and, has been sleeping on  the floor since.
No ball.
Oh, well.

I like the one posted at the door for guests.
When people come to my house, it may be rude on my part, but if they seem squeemish around my dogs, I assure them they are very playful, and will not bite. If they continue to be RUDE to me dogs, I let them know that they are just as important to me as my kids are. If it happens again, I get very rude, and outright tell them to respect my dogs, or leave.

Phooey! The whole thing went downhill, again!
She's scaring the heck out of Mike, and, tonight, tried ordering me around.
I told her off good.
Next trouble, she goes to her private room.

She's proving a tough nut to crack.  I admire you for sticking in there. 

Bill Cahill

I don't know why. Insanity, I guess. I just keep getting the message, "Don't give up.".
Today, she's much calmer, so far.

Well, earlier this evenning Diamond wanted to play with me, so, I played with her. Mike decided to join in the fun!
Had a big grin on his face, and, his tail was  wagging from side to side.
He'd jump on her, then, jump back off, each time looking at me with a big grin.
Warmed my heart, and, really cheered me up.

 :) Tonight I am most happy to say that while Diamond still has some way to go she, and, Mike are getting along much, much better. She's also working hard to be good for me. She's showing alot of love, now...
I thank God for these dogs, and, am most happy I have them.
I love 'em both.....  ;) ;D
Thank you, fellow animal lovers. I think she's going to be a great dog......
