To God, From Dog...

Happy Thanskgiving from Dave

Some thoughts on what a dog would ask God about the nature of the universe and his relationship to it...


TO: GOD FROM: DOG

Dear God: Why do humans smell the flowers, but seldom, if ever, smell one another?

Dear God: When we get to heaven, can we sit on your couch? Or is it still the same old story?

Dear God: Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang, the colt, the stingray, and the rabbit, but not ONE named for a dog? How often do you see a cougar riding around? We do love a nice ride! Would it be so hard to rename the "Chrysler Eagle" the " Chrysler Beagle"?

Dear God: If a dog barks his head off in the forest and no human hears him, is he still a bad dog?

Dear God: We dogs can understand human verbal instructions, hand signals, whistles, horns, clickers, beepers, scent ID's, electromagnetic energy fields, and Frisbee flight paths. What do humans understand?

Dear God: More meatballs, less spaghetti, please.

Dear God: Are there mailmen in Heaven? If there are, will I have to apologize?




Dear God: Let me give you a list of just some of the things I must remember to be a good dog.

1. I will not eat the cat 's food before they eat it or after they throw it up.

2. I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they smell.

3. I will not munch on "leftovers" in the kitty litter box, although they are tasty.

4. The diaper pail is not a cookie jar.

5. The sofa is not a 'face towel'. Neither are Mom and Dad's laps.

6. The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff.

7. My head does not belong in the refrigerator.

8. I will not bite the officer' s hand when he reaches in for Mom's driver's license and registration.

9. I will not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet.

10. Sticking my nose into someone's crotch is an unacceptable way of saying "hello".

11. I don't need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm under the coffee table.

12. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house - not after.

13. I will not throw up in the car.

14. I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt.

15. I will not sit in the middle of the living room and lick my crotch when we have company.

16. The cat is not a 'squeaky toy' so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it's usually not a good thing.



How many of us can relate to the dog who wrote this letter?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

Henry does a LOT of that stuff.  Especially the leftovers from the cat box and the butt-scootin' boogie.

Is that piece by Robert B. Warwick?

Are you Robert B. Warwick?

Seriously, I enjoyed the text; it's very funny and heart-warming. For a moment there I thought you were a very gifted writer. Are you?

No, sadly, I am just a person who enjoyed the piece and posted it verbatim to my blog. It was forwarded to me from a friend who'd had it forwarded to him.

And I don't know Robert B. Warwick.

Thanks for some light relief and great humour. We love dogs and I had to smile at the great and wonderful things dogs do. Our old bulldog did all these--rubbed her arse, snored, licked her crotch and committed a thousand other sins. We loved her!

No dogs named after cars? Don't worry dog; there are so many cars that are real dogs!
