Slappie 9 #1 February 17, 2005 How Many Dogs Does It Take to Change A Light Bulb? 1. Golden Retriever: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb? 2. Border Collie: Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code. 3. Dachshund: You know I can't reach that stupid lamp! 4. Rottweiler: Make me. 5. Boxer: Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the dark. 6. Lab: Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Huh? Can I? Pleeeeeeeeeze, please, please, please! 7. German Shepherd: I'll change it as soon as I've led these people from the dark, check to make sure I haven't missed any, and make just one more perimeter patrol to see that no one has tried to take advantage of the situation. 8. Jack Russell Terrier: I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture. 9. Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a light bulb. 10. Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark. 11. Chihuahua: Yo quiero Taco Bulb. 12. Pointer: I see it, there it is, there it is, right there ... 13. Greyhound: It isn't moving. Who cares? 14. New Zealand Sheep Dog: First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a little circle... 15. Poodle: I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry. The Cat's Answer: "Dogs do not change light bulbs. People change light bulbs. So, the real question is: How long will it be before I can expect some light, some dinner, and a massage?" ALL OF WHICH PROVES, ONCE AGAIN, THAT WHILE DOGS HAVE MASTERS, CATS HAVE STAFF.

Rebecca 0 #4 February 18, 2005 AAHHHHhahahaha!! I LOVE IT!! It's so like them too! I love dogs. And cats. I keep thinking about another pet, but with one of each, I think we're set... you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

kinney29 0 #5 February 18, 2005 Quote 8. Jack Russell Terrier: I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture. How true! I have a (Now named) Parson Russel Terrier. Man does he have energy. If i'm in another room he'll run in about every ten minutes. Litterally jump onto my head, run off and continue to do his thing. He just has to make sure I'm still there and make sure I'm aware that he's around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good for a laugh though.Garbage bags do not make good parachutes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
white_falcon 0 #7 February 18, 2005 A ferrett would make a GREAT addition to that set. We had 2 once and they played w/ BOTH the dog and the cat. It was cool to watch. scott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rebecca 0 #9 February 18, 2005 QuoteA ferrett would make a GREAT addition to that set. We had 2 once and they played w/ BOTH the dog and the cat. It was cool to watch. scott I dunno... there are a LOT of places in my house for squiggly little ferret bodies to squeeze into & get lost, stuck, outside, etc., not to mention that I think the cat would kill them as soon as she could, and the dog would probably freak. Plus, I'm not so much a rodent person. (edit: ferrets are rodents, right? Wouldn't want to offend anyone in case they're only relatives of rodents) you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

Slappie 9 #10 February 18, 2005 Rebecca hun, I think your cat would have a time trying to kill the ferret. those things are alot tougher then they look. Not that it couldn't be done, just saying a normal house cat would have a hard time.

Rebecca 0 #11 February 18, 2005 Who said she was normal? Yeah, you're probably right, and I probably should have said: not only am I not so much a rodent person, I really don't think my man would go for it either! So, it's a moo point. you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
white_falcon 0 #12 February 18, 2005 I'd personally be more worried aobut the Ferrett hurting the cat. LOL Also, they are NOT rodents. They are closer relations to cats than anything and if you are interested, they were originally BRED and kept by the ancient Egyptians to CONTROL the rodent populations. (I'll take Ferretts for $1000 Alex) However, they will go anywhere they can squeeze there heads into. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
