Rules

Hey All.

Do ya all have rules at your house?  I have a few rules here at my house.  I think I am pretty blessed that I DON'T have rules like, "No dogs on the furniture", "No dogs on the bed", "No dogs on laps".  I get to sleep on the bed and lay and sit on the couch and even sit on my momma's lap whenever I want.  Yea life is good.  Momma does have a few rules, like this one: "No chewing your dental bone (or any other bone) on the couch.

Technically I am not on the couch.   

Again I am not on the couch.  I thought I would give the momma that "I love you" look to see how far I could get with my dental bone.

"Buddy you are not supposed to chew your bone on the couch."

"Momma I am NOT chewing my bone on the couch.  I am "holding" my bone on your knee."
"Really Bud?  It's a fine line your trying to cross."

"Buddy are you chewing your bone on the...."

"No, no momma, I am..... I'm... I'm saying a little prayer for all the pups who don't have a bone to chew on."

"Don't ya think it is sad that there are pups and dogs out there who don't have a bone to chew on?  Ohhhhh it just makes me so sad. 

"Yes it is a sad thing Buddy Boo.  Oh and don't think I don't know you just dropped your bone on the floor.... where you should be chewing it."

If I close my eyes then she can't see me...right?

"Oh hi momma.  Is the arm of the couch apart of the "No Chew Zone"?

Ya know what friends?  I think rules are meant to be broken.  More importantly I think it is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.  And after all it is my dental bone so really I am doing very important work to keep my teeths all clean and tarter free.  I mean if my momma can floss while on the couch then I can chew my dental bone.  When I told her that she just rolled her eyes.

Blessings,
Buddy
