If i did not have dogs....

[Mooshi's Mummy]

Im sure you have all seen this before but I think its a nice little reminder about how lucky we are to have our furry friends in our lives:

1. I could walk around the garden barefoot in safety. 2. My house could be carpeted instead of tiled and laminated. 3. All flat surfaces, clothing, furniture, and cars would be free of Dog hair. 4. When the doorbell rings, it wouldn't sound like the local boarding kennels. 5. When the doorbell rings, I could get to the door without wading through dog bodies who beat me there. 6. I could sit on the sofa the way I wanted, without taking into consideration how much space several fur bodies would need to get comfortable. 7. I would not have strange presents under my Christmas tree - like dog bones, stuffed animals or have to answer to people why I wrap them. 8. I would not be on a first name basis with three vets. 9. The most used words in my vocabulary would not be: "out", "sit", "come", "no", "stay", and "leave him/her/it ALONE." 10. My house would not be cordoned off into zones with baby gates or barriers. 11. My pockets and handbags would not contain things like poop bags, dog treats and an extra leash. 12. I would no longer have to spell the words B-A-L-L or W-A-L-K. 13. I would not have as many leaves INSIDE my house as outside. 14. I would not look strangely at people who think having their ONE dog ties them down too much. 15. I'd look forward to Spring and the melting of the snow instead of dreading "mud season". 16. I would not have to answer the question "Why do you have so many dogs?" from people who will never have the joy in their life of knowing they are loved unconditionally by something as close to an angel as they will ever get. How empty my life would be...

#17 I could wear black clothing again.
#18 I might have actually had to talk to those Jevoha's Witnesses.
#19 My nephew would have never been subjected to stuffed animal humping.
But life would have sucked so bad! Yay for puppies.

20: I wouldn't be known at my vets office as that 'crazy dog lady' (I'd probly be that crazy cat lady instead lol).

21. They would'nt say "where is zoey?" when I go in the doggie bakery?

 

[AKBull]

22. I could use the restroom with the door open...

 

[RxGoforth]

Bahahaha AKBull. My husband, who was clearly raised in a barn has just started peeing outside when we got out for bedtime tinkles. He told me last night "well you want me to be the alpha don't you, shut your face, you just wish you could pee outside"

 

[Rugers-Kris]

23. I wouldn't be able to start a "build a mastiff" program with the hair in the backseat of my truck!
24. I would have never learned the true value of Peanut Butter

I can't use the bathroom with the door closed, the younger CAT will open it to find out what you're doing in her bathroom, never mind the dogs!

 

[RxGoforth]

It would be nice to not look like I blow my nose on myself though.

25. I would not have to re-wash my knee where slobber has dried which is where Juno props her head while I sit at the computer.

26. We wouldn't have you wipe the drool that's on the floor all over the hose after they drink

i thought i was the only one that did that when i took Juno out for her last pee.

 

[raechiemay]

27. I wouldn't bust my ass walking through puddles of slobber that have fell out of mouths
28. Farts would now have to be blamed on other family members

I have to modify #17 to white clothing.

 

[Mooshi's Mummy]

The rear window of my car wouldnt be covered in dog snot!
