"The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue." –Anonymous     

 How many dogs does it take to change a light bulb?

1. Golden Retriever: The sun is shining, the day young, we'ev got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're worrying about a stupid burned out bulb?

2. Border Collie: Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.

3. Dachshund: You know that I can't reach that stupid lamp!

4. Rottweiler: Make me.

5. Boxer: Who cares? I can still play with my sqeaky toys in the dark.

6. Lab: Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Can I? Pleeeze, Please, please, please!

7. German Shepard: I'll change it as soon as I've led these people from the dark, check to make sure that I haven't missed any, and make just one more perimeter patrol to see that no one has tried to take advantage of the situation.

8. Jack Russell terrier: I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture.

9. Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a light bulb!

10. Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark.

11. Chihuahua: Yo quiero Taco Bulb. Or "We don't need no stinking light bulb."

12. Greyhound: It isn't moving. Who cares?

13. Australian Shepard: First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a little circle....

14. Poodle: I'll just blow in the Border Collies' ear and hell do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.

A Dogs Pet Peeves

5.  The sleight of hand, fake fetch throw. You fooled a dog! Whoooo Hoooooooo what a proud day for the top of the food chain.
6.  Taking me to the vet for the big , then acting surprised when I freak out every time we go back! 
7.  Getting upset when I sniff up the legs of your guests and goose, Sorry, but I haven't quite mastered that handshake thing yet. 
8.   Dog sweaters Hello??? Haven't you noticed the fur? 
9.  You break wind and then blame it on me? Real classy and not very funny at all.
