How many dogs does it take to change a light bulb ?
The answer to this philosophical question has helped us a lot in this serious decision... what is the dog breed we want?
Golden Retriever: The sun is
shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us and you're
inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb?
Border Collie: Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's
not up to code.
Dachshund: You know I can't reach that stupid lamp!
Rottweiler: Make me.
Boxer: Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the
dark.
Lab: Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb!
Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Huh? Can I? Pleeeeeeeeeze, please, please, please!
Jack Russell Terrier : I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off
the walls and furniture.
Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a
light bulb?
Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in
the dark.
Chihuahua: Yo quiero Taco Bulb.
Pointer: I see it, there it is, there it is, right there...
Greyhound: It isn't moving. Who cares?
Australian Shepherd: First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a
little circle...
Poodle: I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it.
By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry."
German Shepherd: I'll
change it as soon as I've led these people from the dark, check to make sure 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.
There's the dog we do need!!! Someone who truly believes he is in charge!!! (And since the room is dark, the ideal color for a dog to be seen as he patrols and changes the bulb, is WHITE!!! like our Beethoven)
But then... the cat comes...
The Cat's Answer:
"Dogs do not change light bulbs. People change light bulbs. So, the real
question is: How long will it be before I can expect some light, some dinner,
and a massage?"
That is also why we have a cat! To balance the power of such a wonderful dog!!!
J SMILE!!! LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL! J
