A Dog's Life

I've been thinking quite a bit about Calvin. He has a rough life. He gets to watch tv all day long. He gets to take naps. He gets treats. He gets to go on walks. He gets fed. He gets tummy rubs.

These are pics I snapped on Tuesday evening while he was getting his tummy rubbed. He was in a state of ecstasy.



I had a conversation with someone the other day. I made the comment that "...it is all about Calvin." That person then said that they wouldn't date me because Calvin would always come first. I told that person they need to get a dog because of the unconditional love you receive from a dog; something you can only learn from a dog.

Speaking of dogs...

I ran across something like this the other day when I went to get The Calvnator from the groomer. It is too funny!!!!

Top 20 reasons your dog's haircut costs more than yours:

1. Your hairdresser doesn't give you a bath.

2. Your hairdresser doesn't give you a manicure and pedicure.

3. You don't try to bite or scratch your hairdresser

4. You don't wiggle, spin or try to jump out of the hairdresser' s chair.

5. Your hairdresser only cuts the top of your head, not your whole body

6. You don't try to hump the hairdresser

7. Your hairdresser doesn't wipe boogies from your eyes

8. Your hairdresser doesn't pluck and clean your ears

9. Your hairdresser doesn't squeeze your anal glands

10. You don't poop or pee while you are getting your hair cut

11. Your hairdresser does not remove fleas or ticks

12. You don't go 6 weeks (or more) without brushing or washing your hair

13. Your hairdresser doesn't brush your teeth

14. You don't try to bite the clippers. scissors, brush, nail clippers or dryer

15. It doesn't take 3 people to trim your nails

16. Your hairdresser doesn't have to de-matt your hair

17. Your hairdresser would never wash your butt

18. Your hair dresser doesn't give you a "sanitary trim"

19. Drying your hair doesn't blow hair all around that gets on everything.

20. You don't howl or bark while having all this done!

Actually, numbers 1,3,5,6 and 20 apply to me.

Now, that is one cute dog, and it should be all about Calvin!

Cat's have one advantage over dogs- they are "self-cleaning"!
