To God from the Dog

[Linda,Yankee & Finn]

Dear God: Let me give you a list of just some of the things I must remember to be a good Dog.


1. I will not eat the cats' food before they eat it or after they throw it up.

2. I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they smell.

3. The Litter Box is not a cookie jar.

4. The sofa is not a 'face towel'.

5. The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff.

6. I will not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet.

7. Sticking my nose into someone's crotch is an unacceptable way of saying 'hello'.

8. I don't need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm under the coffee table .

9. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house - not after.

10. I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt.

11. I will not sit in the middle of the living room and lick my crotch.

12. 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.



P.S. Dear God: When I get to Heaven may I have my testicles back?

Oh, this made my day! Would you mind if I copied this and sent it to a few of my dog lover friends who are not part of DK?

[Leslie and Halas]

Cute. Halas uses pretty much any surface as a face towel, too.

[Tricia, Shiloh, Fenway & Tessie]

That was very cute! My sofa is definitely a face towel, lol

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

Yankee, I think you must be one good dood if you follow even one of those rules!!! I hope God is listening to you, Bud.

[Debbie and Thomas]

I hear ya Yankee. It's a dog's life isn't it? Your fellow dood, Thomas (alias the Tom Cat)
