Things Dogs Need to Remember

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, deer, etc. just because I like the way they smell.

"Kitty box crunchies," although they are tasty, are not food.

The diaper pail is not a cookie jar.

I will not chew my human's toothbrush and not tell them.

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.

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 come in from outside and immediately drag my butt across the carpet.

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

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.
