Things I Must Remember As A Dog
- The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff.
- I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm lying under the coffee table.
- I will not roll my toys behind the fridge, behind the sofa or under the bed.
- I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house.
- I will not eat the cats' food, before they eat it or after they throw it up.
- I will stop trying to find the few remaining pieces of clean carpet in the house when
I am about to get sick.
- I will not throw up in the car.
- I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they
smell.
- "Kitty box crunchies," although they are tasty, are not food.
- I will not eat any more Kleenex or napkins and then redeposit them in the backyard
after processing.
- The diaper pail is not a cookie jar.
- I will not chew my human's toothbrush and not tell them.
- I will not chew crayons or pens, especially not the red ones, or my people will think
I am hemorrhaging.
- When in the car, I will not insist on having the window rolled down when it's raining
outside.
- We do not have a doorbell. I will not bark each time I hear one on TV.
- I will not steal my mom's underwear and dance all over the back yard with it.
- The sofa is not a face towel. Neither are Mom & dad's laps.
- My head does not belong in the refrigerator.
- I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for dad's driver's license and
car registration.
- I will not play tug-of-war with dad's underwear when he's on the toilet.
- I will not eat mint flavored dental floss out of the bathroom garbage to avoid having
a string hanging out of my butt.
- I will not use "roll around in the dirt" as an option after just getting
a bath.
- Sticking my nose into someone's crotch is not an acceptable way of saying hello.
- I will not hump on any person's leg just because I thought it was the right thing to
do.
- I will not pass gas in my owners face while sleeping on the pillow next to their head.
- I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt across the carpet.
- The toilet bowl is not a never-ending water supply and, just because the water is blue,
it doesn't mean it is cleaner.
- I will not sit in the middle of the living room and lick my crotch when company is over.
- Suddenly turning around and smelling my butt can quickly clear a room.
- The cat is not a squeaky toy so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it's usually
not a good thing.
