          I will not eat the cats' food,
          before or after they eat it.
          I will not burn rubber through the
          open car window and into the fast food restaurant, no matter how good
          it smells.
          I will stop trying to find the few
          remaining pieces of carpet in the house when I am about to throw up.
          I will not throw up in the car.
          I will scootch my bottom along the
          grass to rid myself of hangers-on.
          I will not steal used sanitary
          napkins from the bathroom garbage.
          I will not roll on dead seagulls,
          fish, crabs, etc.
          I will not eat other animal's poop.
          I will not lick my human's face
          after eating animal poop.
          "Kitty box crunchies" are
          not food.
          I will not eat any more socks and
          then re-deposit them in the backyard after processing.
          I will not wake Mummy up by
          sticking my cold, wet nose up her bottom end.
          I will not chew my humans'
          toothbrushes and not tell them.
          I will not chew crayons or pens,
          especially not the red ones, or my humans will think I am
          hemorrhaging.
          When in the car, I will not insist
          on having the window rolled down when it's raining outside.
          The sofa is not a face towel! 
          Neither are Mum and Dad's laps.
          My head does not belong in the
          refrigerator.
          I will not play tug-o'-war with
          Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet.
          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.
          I must shake the rainwater out of
          my fur BEFORE entering the house.  
       Notice to people who
      visit my home: 
        The dog lives here. You don't.If you don't want dog hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture.Yes, he has some disgusting habits.  So do I and so do
          you.  What's your point?OF COURSE he smells like a dog.It's his nature to try to sniff your crotch.  Please feel free
          to sniff his.I like him a lot better than I like most peopleTo you he's a dog.  To me he's an adopted child who is short,
          hairy, walks on all fours and doesn't speak clearly.  I have no
          problem with any of these things.Dogs are better than kids.  They eat less, don't ask for money
          all the time, are easier to train, usually come when called, never
          drive your car, don't hang out with drug-using friends, don't smoke or
          drink, don't worry about whether they have the latest fashions, don't
          wear your clothes, don't need a gazillion dollars for college, and if
          they get pregnant you can sell the pups.   Top

          Blaming your farts on me ... not funny ... not funny!!
          Yelling at me for barking ... I'M A FRIGGIN' DOG YOU
          IDIOT!!
          Taking me for a walk, then not letting me check stuff
          out.  Exactly who's walk is this anyway?
          Any trick that involves balancing food on my nose ...
          stop it!
          Any haircut that involves bows or ribbons.  Now
          you know why we chew your stuff up when you're not home.
          The sleight of hand, fake fetch throw.  You
          fooled a dog!  What a proud moment for the top of the food chain,
          you nitwit.
          Taking me to the vet for "the big snip",
          then acting surprised when I freak out every time I go back.
          Getting upset when I sniff the crotches of your
          guests.  Sorry, but we haven't quite mastered the handshake thing
          yet.
          How you act disgusted when I lick myself.  Look,
          we both know the truth .. you're just jealous.
          Dog sweaters.  Have you notices the fur! 
          Imbecile!
