Reasons to adopt a dog

Life is full of choices...
Cereal or toast?
1 sugar or 2 in the morning coffee?
Daily newspaper or latest gossip mag?
Clean the house or watch Bold & the Beautiful?

Who am I kidding????
Those are the choices I use to make before Miss Twinkle Toes became part of my world!

It's now more like should we...
Play inside or outside?
Trash the lounge room or trash the bedroom?
Watch Play School or In the Night Garden?

People have often asked me If people were to ask me,
"Why should I adopt a dog?"
I would reply,
"This choice to adopt a dog can be made simply by reflecting on the following reasons."


See if one of these little paw padded puppies would suit your lifestyle.
If you want someone who will eat whatever you put in front of him and never say its not quite as good as his mother's...
Then adopt a dog.

If you want someone always willing to go out, at any hour, for as long and wherever you want ...
Then adopt a dog.

If you want someone who will never touch the remote, doesn't care about football, and can sit next to you as you watch romantic movies...
Then adopt a dog.

If you want someone who is content to get on your bed just to warm your feet and whom you can push off if he snores...
Then adopt a dog.

If you want someone who never criticizes what you do, doesn't care if you are pretty or ugly, fat or thin, young or old, who acts as if every word you say is especially worthy of listening to, and loves you unconditionally, perpetually ...
Then adopt a dog.


BUT..

On the other hand, if you want someone who will...

Never come when you call,
Ignores you totally when you come home,
Leaves hair all over the place,
Walks all over you,
Runs around all night and only comes home to eat and sleep,
AND
acts as if your entire existence is solely to ensure his happiness...



Then I'm sure you know what you have to do.



Do I really need to tell you?



You probably have it figured out by now...



You may even have one at home already...



Just save yourself the trouble and


adopt a cat!
And you thought I was going to say marry a man...

I can't take full credit for this, although I did find all of the gorgeous puppies and can endorse the reasons above as to why you should adopt a dog.
