Just a Dog - The Hull Truth

s_ebels · 03-11-2009, 09:11 PM

I think God gave us dogs so we could know, in a small way, what unconditional love feels like.

Yup, she is "just a dog", but then again I am "just a man."

Thanks for that. Two weeks ago we had to put down our dog...the one my wife picked up as a puppy on the side of the road just before we were married. One of the rural area black dog with a white spot types.

Wonderful dog...was their for the birth of both of our children (one now 3 and one 6 months)...and she was great with both of them.

It was immediate and very unexpected...I felt like a heel for being so upset about loosing "just a dog"

We suppose to take your word on that?

Wow another great thread absolutely ruined by bilge crap again.

Wonder when the mods will have had enough of having the top forums screwed up by those who can't keep the crap where it belongs.

Are you crying?

I'm going to try to bring this thread back on track.

I never understood the "just a dog" thing either. At the end of the day having my buddy, my dog, jumping up and down and showering me with joy simply because I'm home is just the ticket to bring me back on track.

If you want to know what is TRULY important in life, watch your dog. Eating, sleeping, playing with a simple toy or tennis ball, being with "their people" .... dogs really do know that the best things in life don't cost a fortune.

Menzies why don't you just STFU. You cast the first stone then bitch about it when called on it.

I'd cry for my present dog and did for my last one of 13 years.
I'd could never find a reason to cry for you.
Is that plain enough for ya?

Why dogs are better than women

Dogs don't cry
Dogs love it when your friends come over
Dogs don't care if you use their shampoo
Dogs think you sing great

A dog's time in the bathroom is confined to a quick drink
Dogs don't expect you to call when you're running late. The later you are, the more excited dogs are to see you
Dogs will forgive you for playing with other dogs
Dogs don't notice if you call them another dog's name
Dogs are excited by rough play
Dogs don't mind if you give their offspring away
Dogs can appreciate excessive body hair
Anyone can get a good looking dog
If a dog is gorgeous, other dogs don't hate it
Dogs don't shop
Dogs like it when you leave lots of things on the floor
Dogs never need to examine the relationship
A dog's parents never visit
Dogs love long car trips
Dogs understand that instincts are better than asking for directions
When a dog gets old and snaps at you incessantly, you can shoot it
Dogs like beer
Dogs don't hate their bodies
Dogs never criticize
Dogs agree that you have to raise your voice to get your point across
Dogs never expect gifts
Dogs don't worry about germs
Dogs don't want to know about every other dog you've had
Dogs don't let magazine articles guide their lives
You never have to wait for a dog, they're ready to go 24 hours a day
Dogs have no use for flowers, cards or jewelry
Dogs don't borrow your shirts
Dogs never want foot rubs
Dogs enjoy heavy petting in public
Dogs find you amusing when you're drunk
Dogs can't talk
Dogs seldom outlive you
I'll add they never ask you trick questions like Do these pants make me look fat

that was great!

"Why dogs are better than women"
That was great! I would add, dogs don't pitch a fit if you want to get a woman.
I'd like to get a lab but get blab, blab, blab everytime I mention it.

Surfergirl, you're arms are awfully hairy?

just one...

the best thing about a good dog is that he is always happy to see you, no matter what you did, what you said, or what you thought. my dogs make me feel like a better person than i probably am...

there aint no price tag for that
