Creative Canine Basketball Star

How about the lab that can dribble a basketball. I saw this video recently and I have to say it was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen a dog do. And that's saying a lot. Being a former basketball player myself, I was impressed. I had a dog once that jumped and blocked my shot. But this dog in the video was simply amazing. Not only could he dribble, but he could also pass, and shoot. You have to see it to believe it. A man is dribbling a basketball and passes it to the dog. The dog is standing on its back legs. He dribbles the ball two or three times and then bats it back to the man. This little drill goes on for a minute or two and then all of a sudden, the man passes the ball behind his back and the dog catches it. Not only that, but the dog then proceeds to place the ball in a lowered basketball hoop. Yes, the dog dunks the ball. Wow. I love dogs and have always had an admiration for dogs who can do unusual tricks. This one tops the list...so far! He must have had some good pet supplies, like some real good pet pet supplies.

Funny Cat Story

Face it. Some cats are hilarious. Then there are people with cats that are sometimes just as funny. Take this story for example. We were dressed and ready to go out for a big holiday celebration. We put our cat in the backyard and called the local taxi company and requested a cab. The cab arrived and we opened the door to leave the house. Unfortunately, our cat ran back into the house. We didn't want the cat left in the house because she always rebels when we leave her alone. My wife went out to the cab while I went inside to get the cat.

Waiting in the taxi, my wife didn't want the driver to know that the house would be empty for the night, so, she explained to the driver that I would be out shortly after saying goodbye to my mother. A few minutes later, I got into the taxi "Sorry I took so long," I said as we drove off. "That stupid thing was hiding under the bed. I had to poke her with a golf club to get her to come out! Then she tried to get away from me, so I grabbed her by the neck. She was trying to scratch me so I had to wrap her in a blanket to protect myself, but it worked. I hauled her fat butt downstairs and threw her out in the backyard!"

The cab driver almost hit a parked car.

How to Give Your Dog a Bath

By Dante Jolay

Bathing dogs is not easy if your dog happens to be a little stubborn. To make it easier, follow these five simple steps.

1. Prepare towel, dog shampoo, hair brush, and hair blower. Regular hair shampoos or dishwashing liquids have active ingredients that could damage dog's skin and fur. In choosing a shampoo, choose an ordinary dog shampoo unless your dog has ticks or other skin problems. Dog shampoos have thick consistency so it is best to dilute it with 25% to 50% water.
2. Brush dog's hair. Brushing your dog's hair is recommended before and after giving him a bath. Brushing takes away the dirt and shedding hair. This is best done before bathing since most dirt is hard to brush away when the dog's hair is wet.
3. Trick your stubborn dog into taking a bath. When all else fails, bribe your dog with treats or bring his favorite toy to lure him to the bathroom. This could take a lot of practice and patience on your part. If these tricks don't work on your canine buddy, then the other, faster option is to use a choke chain. If your dog is really big, you might consider bathing him outdoors with a hose and a helper.
4. Wet, shampoo, and rinse, rinse, rinse. Wet your dog starting from the neck then to the body and tail. Do not wet his head yet. This should be completed last. Shampoo your dog's hind legs and tail going to the body and neck. Then, wet and shampoo the head making sure that no water gets into your dog's ear. Rinse dog's fur thoroughly. If any shampoo is left on the dog's skin for a long period of time, it could cause allergies and skin irritation.
5. Pat your dog dry using a clean towel. Prepare to get wet yourself as your dog may shake off excess water. Afterward, use a hair blower to dry your dog completely. It is advisable to adjust the blower to the right temperature. Do not let the hair blower stay too close to the dog's skin as this could burn his sensitive skin.

The First Cat

Adam and Eve said, "Lord, when we were in the garden, you walked with us every day. Now we do not see you any more. We are lonesome here, and it is difficult for us to remember how much you love us." And God said, "Okay, I will create a companion for you that will be with you forever and who will be a reflection of my love for you, so that you will love me even when you cannot see me. Regardless of how selfish or childish or unlovable you may be, this new companion will accept you as you are and will love you as I do, in spite of yourselves." And God created a new animal to be a companion for Adam and Eve. And it was a good animal. And God was pleased. And the new animal was pleased to be with Adam and Eve and he wagged his tail. And Adam said, "Lord, I have already named all the animals in the Kingdom and I cannot think of a name for this new animal." And God said, "No problem. Because I have created this new animal to be a reflection of my love for you, his name will be a reflection of my own name, and you will call him DOG." And dog lived with Adam and Eve and was a companion to them and loved them. And they were comforted. And God was pleased. And dog was content and wagged his tail.

After a while, it came to pass that an angel came to the Lord and said, "Lord, Adam and Eve have become filled with pride. They strut and preen like peacocks and they believe they are worthy of adoration. Dog has indeed taught them that they are loved, but perhaps too well." And God said, "No problem! I will create for them a companion who will be with them forever and who will see them as they are. The companion will remind them of their limitations, so they will know that they are not always worthy of adoration." And God created CAT to be a companion to Adam and Eve. And cat would not obey them. And when Adam and Eve gazed into cat's eyes, they were reminded that they were not the supreme beings. And Adam and Eve learned humility. And they were greatly improved. And God was pleased. And Dog was happy. And Cat didn't care one way or the other.

Pets Are More Than Just Funny

Pets are funny, no doubt about it. But they also are valuable additions to the family. Pets can teach children lessons they will carry throughout life. One good example is unconditional love. They love you you regardless of your failings. Important lessons on friendship, responsibility, loyalty, and devotion come gift-wrapped in fur. To care for a pet is to be responsible. You've got to feed them and take care of them. You've got to clean up behind them many times. That part may not be fun. You've got to teach them discipline but the joy of seeing them light up when you walk into the room makes it all worth it. Work and play, life's great counter-balancing weights, begin with pets. If you don't have a dog or cat, consider getting one. If not for yourself, do it for the kids.

Mind Games Dogs Play

Let the humans teach you a brand new trick, and learn it well. Then when the humans try to demonstrate it to someone else, stare blankly back at the humans. Pretend you have no idea what they're talking about.

Draw attention to the human. When out for a walk always pick the busiest, most visible spot to go poop. Take your time and make sure everyone watches. This works particularly well if your humans have forgotten to bring a plastic bag.

Make your humans be patient. When you go outside to go pee, sniff around the entire yard as your humans wait. Act as if the spot you choose to go pee will ultimately decide the fate of the world.

When going out for a walk, alternate between choking and coughing every time a strange human walks by.

Make your own rules. Don't always bring back the stick when playing fetch with the humans. Make them go and chase it once in a while.

Funny Pet Names

Funny pet names are a fun way to express how you feel about your pet. Our pets can bring us joy and happiness. There's no disputing that. So, there is nothing wrong with choosing a fun name. Dogs learn their names and commands based on short and easy words. For other pets, there are really no limitations as to what you can name them. You can be as funny and creative as you like. Make sure it is something that the whole family can easily pronounce. Also, be certain the funny pet name won't cause any embarrassment for any of the family members when someone uses it. For ideas for funny pet names, you will find many books or magazines with good suggestions. Here's a good starter list.

Ruff Ruff says "Please Don't Go"

My dog is the funniest pet around. I know everyone thinks their pet is funny, so do I. One of the most hilarious things that Ruff Ruff does is when it is time for me to go to work, he protests. No not in the normal way of barking or running around, or even laying in front of the door to block it. Ruff Ruff runs to my closet and gets some of my more casual clothes like my sweats and brings it to me. He knows that when I put my suit on, that I am leaving without him. So he does his best to let me know that isn't what he wants. When I proceed to leave anyway, you guessed it, he says "Ruff Ruff."

A Dog's Ten Commandments

1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you is likely to be painful.

2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.

3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.

4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainment, but I have only you.

5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me.

6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.

7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.

8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.

9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too, will grow old.

10. On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please. Never say you can't bear to watch. Don't make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because I love you so.

We do not have to wait for Heaven, to be surrounded by hope, love, and joyfulness. They are here on earth and have four legs!

Puppy Rules: It's Mine

If I like it, it’s mine.
If I can take it from you, it’s mine.
If it’s in my mouth, it’s mine.
If I had it a little while ago, it’s mine.
If it’s mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
If toys are out, all of them are mine.
If it looks just like mine, it’s mine.
If I think it’s mine, it’s mine.

P.S. Same rules go for human toddlers!

My Cats Clean Their Litter Box

I have two of the funniest cats in the world. They are nothing short of amusing entertainment! They have a strange but entertaining habit of cleaning their litter boxes. Yes, I mean cleaning them from top to bottom after using them. I don’t mean the usual “covering up” after their business is done. They stay in the box several minutes afterwards and scratch at every spot of the box and then the lid. They both do it as if they know the other is watching and don't want to miss anything in case it is spot checked. When they have completed the task, they each step out of the box and look back as if admiring their handiwork.

Funny Dog Show Story

This funny pet story makes me laugh every time I read it.

First time at a dog show, I'll never go near one again.
The Breeder said "Show him" when I bought my dog,
I showed him alright, the whole place was agog.
They gave me a number, they gave me a pin.
But I couldn't bear to stick the thing in.
So I rushed to the shop and bought some clear glue.
Then I stuck the card onto his back in the loo.
We arrived at the ringside to find we were first.
In the Puppy Class (this part is the worst).
We marched in together as fast as we were able.
Arrived at the judge who said "Up on the table".
This really surprised me, my skirt was quite tight.
And I just couldn't make it, try hard as I might.
The Judge looked quite worried, he said "Listen here
Put your dog on the table, not you, my dear."
By now I was trembling, I felt such a fool.
But I said to myself..."Play it cool, play it cool."
"How old?" said the Judge, I heard it quite clear.
Well really, I thought, and said "Thirty next year."
The Steward, poor fellow, threw a kind of fit.
He spluttered, he coughed, and his eyes ran a bit.
"I'd have that cough seen to" I said to him when.
He'd finally stopped...then he started again.
"Once round the ring, dear, as fast as you can"
Said the Judge, so I did, I just ran and ran,
But when I arrived (out of breath, I'll admit).
The Judge said "Your dog, dear." I felt like a twit.
Off round once again, I kept my head bent.
Oh the shame, my pup crouched, he just went and went.
A lady came running with bucket and spade.
With manure so spicy, has she got it made.
We came back to the Judge who said with a frown
"Stand your dog." I said "Please sir, he's not lying down."
"You can take First Place stand. " he said. I said "Ta."
What a job I had getting that stand into the car!

Funny Pet Ads

Whether you are a pet lover or not, you have to admit that there are funny pets. Pet owners can talk for hours about the hilarious things their beloved critters do. But how about the funny pet ads? I found a site which has listed some of the funniest ads you will ever see. Pedigree is at the top of the list due to their cool ads for pet food. Check it out here. Now try not to laugh too loud. Unless of course you are one of those so called pet lovers. And if you are then we wouldn't expect anything less from you.
