W.O.M.P. I thought that would make you curious! ...and just what does that acronym mean?
I love this quote... The dog is amoral and does not have the emotional sophistication to be spiteful or insensitive. Humans have the monopoly on those delights. Shannon McKay
If I Didn’t Have A Dog I could walk around the yard barefoot in safety.
My house could be carpeted instead of tiled and laminated.
All flat surfaces, clothing, furniture, and cars would be free of hair.
When the doorbell rings, it wouldn't sound like a kennel
and I could get to the door without wading through fuzzy bodies that beat me there. I could sit on the couch and my bed the way I wanted,
without taking into consideration how much space several fur bodies would need to get comfortable. I would have money and no guilt to go on a real vacation.
I would not be on a first-name basis with 6 veterinarians,
as I put their yet unborn grand kids through college. The most used words in my vocabulary wouldn’t be:
Out, Sit, Down, Come, Stay, and leave him / her/ it ALONE! My house would not be cordoned off into zones with baby gates
or barriers and would not look like a day care centre, toys everywhere. My pockets would not contain things like poop bags, treats and an extra leash.
I would not look strangely at people who think having
ONE dog or a cat ties them down too much. I wouldn’t have to answer the question.. 'Why do you have so many
animals?' from people who will never have the joy in their lives of knowing they are loved unconditionally by someone, as close to an angel, as they will ever get. How EMPTY my life would be!
