15 RULES for Dogs

 

1. Dogs are never permitted in the house. The dog stays outside in a

specially built wooden compartment named, for very good reason, the dog

house.

 

2. Okay, the dog can enter the house, but only for short visits or if his

own house is under renovation.

 

3. Okay, the dog can stay in the house on a permanent basis, provided his

dog house can be sold in a yard sale to a rookie dog owner.

 

4. Inside the house, the dog is not allowed to run free and is confined

to a comfortable but secure metal cage.

 

5. Okay, the cage becomes part of a two-for-one deal along with the dog

house in the yard sale, and the dog can go wherever the hell he pleases.

 

6. The dog is never allowed on the furniture.

 

7. Okay, the dog can get on the old furniture but not the new furniture.

 

8. Okay, the dog can get up on the new furniture until it looks like the

old furniture and then we'll sell the whole damn works and buy new

furniture...upon which the dog will most definitely not be allowed.

 

9. The dog never sleeps on the bed. Period.

 

10. Okay, the dog can sleep at the foot of the bed.

 

11. Okay, the dog can sleep alongside you, but he's not allowed under the

covers.

 

12. Okay, the dog can sleep under the covers but not with his head on the

pillow.

 

13. Okay, the dog can sleep alongside you under the covers with his head

on the pillow, but if he snores he's got to leave the room.

 

14. Okay, the dog can sleep and snore and have nightmares in bed, but

he's not to come in and sleep on the couch in the TV room, where I am now

sleeping. That's just not fair.

 

15. The dog never gets listed on the census questionnaire as "primary

resident," even if it's true.
