You are a DOG - you are not "one of the girls" - not even if you sneak on to the settee between us when we're putting the world to rights, in true girly fashon.

And, come to that, your rear end is not your most becoming feature....

One of my cats has already achieved her New Year's resolution!!!!

At the first loud bang outside, I will not scrabble to hide myself in the cupboard under the stairs (smallest corner at the furthest end), and proceed to rip my long fur out so I look like a poodle with mange!!!
She stayed under the wicker chair all evening, until I moved upstairs, when she lay under a stool!
It's only taken 4 years!!!

One for another cat - swinging from 'mummy's' ar*e by my (unretractable)claws while she's preparing a meal will not make her give me a taste of whatever she's preparing.

One for our 3 year old Border Collie...

I will not in future bark at birds of any kind that encroach my territory ie the back garden.

I have already had one ASBO from the local council...reported by an extremely disagreeable neighbour. I only bark, I hasten to add, for such a short time... just enough to get rid of the peskie things and inbetween my female owner is bribing me with all sorts of goodies to get me in and to shut me up....sheesh am I on to a good thing!

Hearing my master's whistle and I am in like a shot...well he is the one that takes me walkies!!

My dog really wrote this (in my dreams) and I hope she sticks to it....

I promise not to be a bully any more and stare longingly and constantly at my cupboard containing 'goodies'. I understand the bouncing and excitement I do at every opportunity is very detrimental to your health - and mine and the weight I have gained since being a total bully is going to be hard for us both to lose.
