**DOGS RULES FOR HUMANS**

DOGS RULES FOR HUMANS
by: Kristie Porter


1. Don't come home smelling of other dogs.
2. You must feed me every goodie you're eating.
3. Don't call me, or lead me, to a bath.
4. Let me outside even though I just came in. There was an area I forgot to sniff.
5. I can sleep anywhere I choose, even if it means tripping over me.
6. Don't shhh me from barking while you're on the phone. I heard the wind blowing the leaves.
7. Don't move me while sleeping sideways in the middle of the bed between you and Daddy. You have enough room on the edge of the bed.
8. Don't think you can leave a room without me.
9. If it lands on the floor, it's MINE!
10. I'll use SAD PUPPY DOG EYES TO GET WHAT I WANT!

**GOOFY DAD**

Dad is so weird! When took me for walk this morning he put layers and layers of clothes but he still was wearing shorts. His legs must extra furry like me. Mom even told him it's only 58 degrees out. I wonder what's he gonna' do if it REALLY get cold....Oh, I forgot it doesn't get cold here at least to me & mom.

A Pet’s Ten Commandments by Stan Rawlinson

1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you is likely to be painful.

2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.

3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.

4. Don’t be angry with me for long and don’t lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainments, but I have only you.

5. Talk to me. Even if I don’t understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me.

6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.

7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.

8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I’m not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.

9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too, will grow old.

10. On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please. Never say you can’t bear to watch. Don’t make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because I love you so.

~ take a moment today to thank God for your pets. Enjoy and take good care of them. ~

~ Life would be a much duller, less joyful experience without God's critters.~
