| Subject: THINGS DOGS MUST REMEMBER I will not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet. 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 scootch my bottom along the grass to rid myself of hangers-on. I will not roll my toys behind the fridge. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur BEFORE entering the house. I will not drop soggy tennis balls in the underwear of someone who is sitting on the toilet. I will not roll my head around in other animals' poop. I will not eat the cats' food, before or after they eat it. I will stop trying to find the few remaining pieces of clean carpet in the house when I am about to throw up. I will not throw up in the car. I will not roll on dead birds, seagulls, fish, crabs, etc. I will not lick my human's face after eating animal poop. "Kitty box crunchies" are not food. I will not eat any more socks and then redeposit them in the backyard after processing. The diaper pail is not a cookie jar. I will not wake Mommy up by sticking my cold, wet nose up her bottom end. 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 backyard with it. The sofa is not a face towel. Neither are Mom & Dad's laps. My head does not belong in the refrigerator, dishwasher or trashcan. I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for Mom's driver's license and car registration. I will not spend more than 5 minutes trying to find the "perfect" place to poop. I will not eat other animals' poop. I will not take off while on leash to chase squirrels while Mommy is standing on a slippery grass slope. |
