Hey everypup ~Scooter here~

Dear Mom.

Just a friendly reminder from your best dog Scooter. When you get home from work and we have come back in from outside, you must remember that making your lap available is necessary. You see I've been sleeping all day long dreaming about your warm lap and all the scratches I get. So fresh on my mind when I hear the garage door open is the need for a good scratch!

Another thing to keep in mind is that you need to keep my sister Misty off your lap at the same time. When she is up there at the same time, not only do we all get crowded - but one of your scratching hands goes to her. Now I'm not saying she doesn't need the occassional scratch or two - but it really does feel much better when you use two hands and not one. Plus I don't have to concentrate so hard on not falling off. Therefore I can concentrate on how good scratches feel.

Sitting on your lap while you are on the computer is really just "lap time". I don't really get many scratches when you are using one hand for that "mouse" thing. Sure doesn't look like any mouse I've ever seen - but whatever mom. Sure I get to scoot back and lean on you, but you tend to stop scratching after you stop clicking the mouse thing.

I think if you try and keep this in mind I'll be a lot happier dog. See, I'm not even asking you to get rid of my sister or anything. I'd kind of miss her anyways.

I'm willing to give all the above a try if you are. So what do you say Mom? Shall we start practicing now?

OH YEA, we are.

Sniff at ya later ~Scooter~
