Dog Rules, Simplified For Humans
|
Visitors:
Quickly determine which guest is afraid of dogs. Charge across the
room, barking loudly and leap playfully on this person. If the human falls down on
the floor and starts crying, lick its face and growl gently to show your concern.
Barking:
Because you are a dog, you are expected to bark. So bark a
lot. Your owners will be very happy to hear you protecting their house.
Especially late at night while they are sleeping safely in their beds. There is no
more secure feeling for a human that to keep waking up in the middle of the night hearing
you protective bark, bark, bark...
Licking:
Always take a BIG drink from your water dish immediately before
licking your human. Humans prefer clean tongues. Be ready to fetch your human
a towel.
Holes:
Rather than digging a BIG hole in the middle of the yard and
upsetting your human, dig a lot of smaller holes all over the yard so they won't notice.
If you arrange a little pile of dirt on one side of each hole, maybe they'll think
it's gophers. There are never enough holes in the ground. Strive daily to do
your part to help correct this problem.
Doors:
The area directly in front of a door is always reserved for the
family dog.
The Art Of Sniffing:
Humans like to be sniffed. Everywhere. It is your duty
as the family dog to accommodate them.
Dining Etiquette:
Always sit under the table at dinner, especially when there are
guests, so you can clean up any food that falls on the floor. It's also a good time
to practice your sniffing.
Housebreaking:
Housebreaking is very important to humans, so break as much of the
house as possible.
Going For Walks:
Rules of the road: when out for a walk with your master or
mistress, never go to the bathroom on your own lawn.
Couches:
It is perfectly permissible to lie on the new couch after all you
humans have gone to bed.
Playing:
If you lose your footing while chasing a ball or stick, aim for the
flowerbed to absorb your fall, so you don't injure yourself.
Chasing Cats:
When chasing cats, make sure you never--quite--catch them. It
spoils all the fun.
Chewing:
Make a contribution to the fashion industry...eat a shoe.
