Things I MUST remember as a dog:




1. The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff.

2. I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm lying under the coffee table.

3. I will not roll my toys behind the fridge, behind the sofa or
under the bed.

4. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the
house.

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

6. I will stop trying to find the few remaining pieces of clean
carpet in the house when I am about to get sick.

7. I will not throw up in the car.

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

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

10. I will not eat any more Kleenex or napkins and then redeposit
them in the backyard after processing.

11. The diaper pail is not a cookie jar.

12. I will not chew my humans' toothbrushes and not tell them.
13. I will not chew crayons or pens, especially not the red ones, or
my people will think I am hemorrhaging.

14. When in the car, I will not insist on having the window rolled
down when it´ raining outside.

15. We do not have a doorbell. I will not bark each time I hear one
on TV.

16. I will not steal my mom's underwear and dance all over the
backyard with it.

17. The sofa is not a face towel. Neither are Mom's & Dad's laps.

18. My head does not belong in the refrigerator.

19. I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for Mom's
driver's license and car registration.

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

21. To avoid having a string hanging out of my butt, I will not eat
mint flavored dental floss out of the bathroom garbage.

22. I will not use "roll around in the dirt" as an option after just
getting a bath.

23. Sticking my nose into someone's crotch is not an acceptable way of saying hello.

24. I will not hump on a person's leg just because I thought it was
the friendly thing to do.

25. I will not fart in my owners' faces while sleeping on the pillownext to their heads.

26. I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt
across the carpet.

27. The toilet bowl is not a never ending water supply, and just
because the water is blue, it doesn´ mean it is cleaner.

28. I will not sit in the middle of the living room and lick my
crotch when company is present.


29. Suddenly turning around and smelling my butt can quickly clear a room.


30. The cat is not a squeaky toy, so when I play with him and he
makes that noise, it´ usually not a good thing.
