And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
The only drawback to your dog sleeping on the bed is when they're fast asleep, and you wanna roll over and pull the covers with you, the dog won't budge, and it's like trying to pull a blanket out from underneath a cinder block. At least with my dog.
As a boy, I had a mixed shepherd. Fine, until he grew up. He liked to sleep on the wall side of my bed. During the night, he’d stretch all four paws. Pushing me out onto the floor.
Had a Jack Russel. Totally bonded to the wife. I would jump into bed, press as tight up to her as possible. He would jump on top of us and wiggle until he got between us. He’d be on his back, squeezed tight between us. Pretending everything was fine. When she left the house without him. He would run run around whining before finally jumping in my lap. Only time he’d get near me. I would sit very still so he could sleep. He would constantly break eye-watering wind. But if I farted, he’d jump up and give me a look like “You dirty bastard” and leave. 😁

You have a gift with words...I saw the whole thing and laughed the whole time.
DeleteDogs are indeed proof that God loves us :)
Funny, it doesn't list the ability to see if your dog has picked up any fleas or ticks.
ReplyDeleteLie down with dogs, wake up with fleas.
