A couple has a dog that snores.

Annoyed because she can’t sleep, the wife goes to the vet to see if he can help.

The vet tells the woman to tie a ribbon around the dog’s testicles and he will stop snoring.

“Yeah, right!” she says.

A few minutes after going to bed, the dog begins snoring, as usual.

The wife tosses and turns, unable to sleep.

Muttering to herself, she goes to the closet and grabs a piece of red ribbon and ties it carefully around the dog’s testicles.

Sure enough, the dog stops snoring!

Later that night, her husband returns home drunk from being out drinking with his buddies.

He climbs into bed, falls asleep and begins snoring loudly.

The woman thinks maybe the ribbon might work on him

She goes to the closet again, grabs a piece of blue ribbon and ties it around her husband’s testicles.

Amazingly, it also works on him!  The woman sleeps soundly.

He wakes from his drunken stupor and stumbles into the bathroom.

As he stands in front of the toilet, he glances in the mirror and sees a blue ribbon attached to his privates.

He is very confused and, as he walks back into the bedroom, he sees the red ribbon attached to his dog’s testicles.

He shakes his head and looks at the dog and whispers,

“I don’t know where we were, or what we did, but by Crikey, we took first and second place!”

 

 

A Dogs purpose from a 6 year old

Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle.

I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer.  I told the family we couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home. As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure as they felt that Shane might learn something from the experience.

The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him.  Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away.  The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker's Death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animals lives are shorter than human lives.  Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, "I know why." Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation. It has changed the way I try and live.

He said, "People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life, like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?"

The Six year old continued, "Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remember, if a dog was the teacher you would learn things like:

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them

Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride

Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure Ecstasy

Take naps

Stretch before rising

Run, romp, and play daily

Thrive on attention and let people touch you

Avoid biting when a simple growl will do

On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass

On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree

When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body

Delight in the simple joy of a long walk

Be loyal

Never pretend to be something you're not

If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it

When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently

 

 

 

Warning!!

If you are an owner of a dog that belongs to a 'dangerous breed' category and you also have a small child please take this as a warning.

Don't leave your dog with the child unattended under any circumstances.

Only a few moments was enough for this to happen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

THIS IS SUCH A NEAT STORY.....  after a Tornado In Greensburg , KS .....

The story begins with the rescuers finding this poor little guy
they named Ralphie. S
omeone had already taken him under their wing but weren't equipped to adopt

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ralphie, scared and starved, joined his rescuers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I wouldn'tthink anything could live thru this,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but we were wrong, this little lady also survived that wreckage

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here she is just placed in the car, scared, but safe and then,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

they are no longer alone!

Instant friends, they comforted each other while in the car.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Add two more beagles found after that, the more, the merrier!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh boy, a new traveler to add to the mix. (Note: the cat coming over

the seat needing shelter.) Now, just how is this going to work? (Remember, they are all strange to one another.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's going to work just fine, thank you very much!

 

If only all of mankind could learn such valuable
lessons as this. Wow! The things we learn from our animal friends.
