INNER STRENGTH

If you can start the day without caffeine or pep
pills,
If you can be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people
with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food everyday and be
grateful for it,
If you can understand when loved ones are too
busy to give you time,
If you can overlook when people take things out
on you when,
through no fault of yours, something goes wrong,
If you can take criticism and blame without
resentment,
If you can face the world without lies and
deceit,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,





THEN YOU ARE PROBABLY THE FAMILY DOG.............

Harley does NOT understand people being too busy to pay attention to her. If I'm sitting here typing for too long, she jumps up, pounds the keyboard with her giant paw to help me get done quicker, and bites my typing fingers until I go play with her....

She must be the exception(?) that confirms the rule! lol

 

[mightyduck]

LOL.... you better believe it. She's like a cat--she thinks we're her staff.

That´s why I don´t like cats, and they always sense it. Last Xmas, the always "sweet and caring" huge cat of my bf´s mom, decided to sleep on my bed (gggrrrr) and the only time I tried to "caress" her, she pulled her "claw" and stuck it in my poor little finger! Noone could believe she actually did that b/c she never hurt anyone before! (at least not while they were watching, I would say.... )

Sorry., DJ...but they are not loyal as dogs, so be aware of them! lol

Yeah, I'm not a cat person, either. Harley is different from a cat in that she wants to be with you and be cuddled all the time.... She's always sitting on someone's lap (not always easy, since she weighs over 40 pounds)....

Harley is your dogs name?! I was gonna get a dog about a month ago and her name was Harley. My parents say one is (more then) enough though

One of my friends has a french poodle named "Harley" too...
