If I Did Not Have Dogs.......

[Julie1]

1. I could walk around the yard barefoot in safety.

2. My house could be carpeted instead of tiled and laminated.

3. All flat surfaces, clothing, furniture, and cars would be free of Dog
hair.

4. When the doorbell rings, it wouldn't sound like the NCDL kennels.

5. When the doorbell rings, I could get to the door without wading
through dog bodies who beat me there.

6. I could sit on the couch the way I wanted, without taking into
consideration how much space several fur bodies would need to get
comfortable.

7. I would not have strange presents under my Christmas tree-like dog
bones, stuffed animals or have to answer to people why I wrap them.

8. I would not be on a first name basis with three vets.

9. The most used words in my vocabulary would not be: "out", "sit",
"down","come", "no", "stay", and "leave him/her/it ALONE".

10. My house would not be cordoned off into zones with baby gates or
barriers.

11. My pockets would not contain things like poo pick-up bags, dog
treats and an extra leash.

12. I would no longer have to spell the words B-A-L-L or F-R-I-S-B-E- E
or W-A-L-K.

13. I would not have as many leaves INSIDE my house as outside.

14. I would not look strangely at people who think having their ONE dog
ties them down too much.

15. I'd look forward to Spring and the melting of the snow instead of
dreading "mud season".

16. I would not have to answer the question "Why do I have so many
dogs?" from people who will never have the joy in their life of knowing
they are loved unconditionally by something as close to an angel as they
will ever get.

17. How empty my life would be....
