Dear Dog

Dear dog, I know the eight legged "snax" that sometimes appear on the floor are fun to play with before eating, but must you roll on them too? Smooshed bug is very unappetizing.

Dear Dog,
I would really appreciate it if you would be as good a killer of 8 legged freaks as you are a mouser. Your mom becomes psychotic from seeing the 8 legged freaks.

Dear Dog,
I have been training dogs for years, I really can do it. Shaping is simple and fun, dogs love it. Now get in the darn box!
The mutts can do it, the mutts each learned it, by shaping and clicking, in the matter of minutes. You are a pure bred dog with immaculate lineage, now get in the darn box!



..and my photo of you, my beautiful pure bred Italian greyhound... it doesn't exist, because you won't even try to get in the darned box!

My guy is fascinated with bees. So far, no bad reactions. He eats them.

My shepherd mix does that also. We had a hornet in the house once - sounded like an airplane. I was trying to chase it out the door with a broom, and she jumped up and clipped it in half - ate the non-threatening end. Has done that with several wasps since. I keep Benadryl on hand in case one manages to sting her, but they never do.

Course, sometimes she smooshes the bee, then barks at it to get up and play some more.

Dear Dog,

I haven't had a new bike in 17 years. That's 126 dog years. As you know, this week I laid out a serious chunk of cash for a new bike. So, WHY did you pick today to counter surf, knock down a bowl & eat glass? Did you think the vet's kids need new shoes?

Dear Dog,

Could you please refrain from feasting in the cat's litter boxes. Those little treats you are after are not toostie rolls!

Dear Dog,

When you enjoy your litter-box crunchies, could you please not breathe or drool on me immediately afterwards?

Dear big boy dog - I know the new little dog is annoying, but she is still little. Please wait until she is bigger than your mouth before you try to bite her. Thanks.

Dear big girl dog - Thanks for being such a patient and understanding puppy-sitter. I could not have asked for better behavior from a big sister. You truly are a wonder.

Dear little dog - Why is it that you can learn from the big dogs how to play, how to behave for treats, how to ask for dinner, how to 'kill the squeek' in a toy, how to use the dog door, how to NOT chase the ducks and how to sleep quietly when the humans are in bed...but you cannot figure out that peeing happens OUTSIDE (and not just inside) the dog door? Is it something we are doing? If so, give us a clue. Thanks.
