If I Didn't Have a Dog...
I could walk around the yard barefoot in safety.
My house could be carpeted instead of tiled and laminated.
All flat surfaces, clothing, furniture & cars would be free of hair.
When the doorbell rings, it wouldn't sound like a kennel.
When the doorbell rings, I could get to the door without
wading through fuzzy bodies who beat me there.
I could sit on the couch and my bed the way I wanted,
without taking into consideration how much space
Several fur bodies would need to get comfortable.
I would have money, & no guilt to go on a real vacation.
I would not be on a first-name basis with numerous veterinarians,
as I put their yet unborn grandkids through college.
The most used words in my vocabulary would not be: out, sit, down,
come, no, stay, & leave him/her/it ALONE.
My house would not be cordoned off into zones with
baby gates or barriers.
My house would not look like a day care center,
with toys everywhere.
My pockets would not contain things like poop bags,
treats and an extra leash.
I would no longer have to spell the words B-A-L-L,,
F-R-I-S-B-E-E, W-A-L-K,, T-R-E-A-T,, R-I-D-E,, G-O
I would not have as many leaves INSIDE my house as outside.
I would not look strangely at people who think having ONE dog/cat ties them down too much.
I'd look forward to spring and the rainy season instead of dreading 'mud' season.
I would not have to answer the question 'Why do you have so many animals?'
from people who will never have the joy in their lives of knowing they are loved unconditionally
by someone as close to an angel as they will ever get.
How EMPTY my life would be!!!
'Until one has loved an animal, part of their soul remains unawakened'
"He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his
life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the
last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion."

SitasMom, Hi
Allow me to ask this please, what does SitasMom mean? the reason I am asking you this is that in my country if your eldest son is called Omar people call you Abu Omar which means father of Omar or they call you Um Omar which means mother of Omar, is SitaMom the same !!
Regards
Ibrahim

Its just a cute contraction of two words.......
In our culture we don't do that with names. We put an "apostrophe s" at the end of the word to show ownership.
The dog's tail, The baker's son, The cat's meow. are all singular
The dogs' tails, The bakers' sons, The cats's meow. are plural
Hope this helps
Regards,
Kim

Good post. People around here think one or two dogs is a lot......and then they see me walking the streets with a pack of three Huskies, one Pit Bull, one Retriever, and one GSD following behind me. The Retriever and Pit belong to other family, but still, I couldn't imagine life without dogs, or even with just one dog, that's not enough.
