Before Dogs

Before I had a dogs, I never had to fix liver for anything!

I lived in the city, had extra money, and thought I was sane.

I bought clothes for myself instead of dog shows.

I thought a "tie" was something a man wore around his neck.

I didn't own a pooper scooper, grooming table, crates or exercise pens.

I thought a professional handler was an agent for a fighter.

I thought a major was an officer in the army.

I never told my kids to sit and stay.

I would come home from a party at 4 A.M., not leave for a dog show then.

I never worried about parasites or kennel cough.

I never owed the vet a dime.

I had furniture without dog hair on it.

I didn't worry about dog shows or whelping calenders.

I had long hair and time to groom it.

I thought "in season" referred to the latest fashion.

I thought "Bitch" was a swear word.

I didn't worry if my skirts had no pockets.

I thought bait was something you used when fishing.

I had a food bill I could afford (half of which WAS NOT dog food).

I thought if someone "finished" he was six feet under.

Now that I do have dogs ... I'm sooooo much WISER!
