I’m always talking to people about “Designer Dogs” and what they should be called.  Some names are quite obvious, however with the complexity of the hybrid dog breeding, some names are a nightmare.  We all know about the puggle and the labradoode.. same goes for the cockerpoo or is it cockapoo?

I will not chew my human’s toothbrush and not tell them. I will not chew crayons or pens, ‘specially not the red ones, or my people will think I am hemorrhaging. When in the car, I will not insist on having the window rolled down when it’s raining outside. I will not drop soggy tennis balls in the underwear of someone who is sitting on the toilet. We do not have a doorbell. I will not bark each time I hear one on TV. I will not steal my Mom’s underwear and dance all over the back yard with it. The sofa is not a face towel. Neither are Mom and Dad’s laps. My head does not belong in the refrigerator. I will not bite the officer’s hand when he reaches in for Mom’s driver’s license and car registration. I will not play tug-o’-war with Dad’s underwear when he’s on the toilet. I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I’m lying under the coffee table. I will not roll my toys behind the fridge. The garbage collector is NOT stealing our stuff. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur BEFORE entering the house. I will not eat the cats’ food, before or after they eat it. The computer’s mouse is, unlike a real mouse, inedible. I will stop trying to find the few remaining pieces of carpet in the house when I am about to throw up. I will not throw up in the car. I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc. I will not eat other animals’ poop. I will not roll my head around in other animals’ poop. “Kitty box crunchies” are not food. I will not eat any more socks and then re-deposit them in the backyard after processing. The diaper pail is not a cookie jar. I will not eat the disposable diapers, especially the dirty ones. - Author Unknown dog-humor 2006-10-26T12:54:00-05:00 http://www.celebrity-pets.com/articles/a-poem-for-the-grieving/ http://www.celebrity-pets.com/articles/a-poem-for-the-grieving/#When:04:16:00Z Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn’s rain. When you awaken in the morning’s hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die… -Anonymous farewell-faithful-friend 2006-10-24T04:16:00-05:00 http://www.celebrity-pets.com/articles/rainbow-bridge-poem/ http://www.celebrity-pets.com/articles/rainbow-bridge-poem/#When:03:30:00Z There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth. It is called Rainbow Bridge because of its many splendid colors. Just this side of Rainbow Bridge there is a land of meadows, hills and valleys with lush, green grass. When beloved pets die, they go to this place. There is always food and water and warm spring weather. The old and frail animals are young again. Those who are maimed are made whole again. They play all day with each other. There is only one thing missing. They are not with their special person who loved them on earth. So each day they run and play. Until the day comes when one suddenly stops playing and looks up! The nose twitches. The ears are up! The eyes are staring. And this one suddenly runs from the group. You have been seen! And when you and your special friend meet, you take him in your arms and embrace. Your face is kissed again and again and again, and you look once more into the eyes of your trusting pet. Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together… … Never again to be separated. Poem Author - Paul C. Dahm farewell-faithful-friend 2006-10-24T03:30:00-05:00
