- I could walk around the yard barefoot in safety.
- My house could be carpeted instead of tiled and laminated.
- All surfaces, clothing, furniture, and cars would be free of hair.
- When the doorbell rings, it wouldn’t sound like a kennel.
- When the doorbell rings, I could get to the door without wading through fuzzy bodies who beat me there.
- I could sit on the couch and my bed the way I wanted, with out taking into consideration how much space several fur bodies would need to get comfortable.
- I would have money, and no guilt to go on a real vacation.
- I would not be on a first-name basis with 6 veterinarians, as I put their yet unborn grand-kids through college.
- The most used words in my vocabulary would not be: out, sit, down, come, no, stay, and leave it ALONE.
- My house would not be cordoned off into zones with baby gates or barriers.
- I would not talk ‘baby talk’. ‘Eat your din din’. ‘Yummy yummy for the tummy’.
- My house would not look like a day care center, toys everywhere.
- My pockets would not contain things like poop bags, treats and an extra leash.
- I would no longer have to spell the words B-A-L-L,, W-A-L-K,, T-R-E-A-T, O-U-T,, G-O,, R-I-D-E,, C-O-O-K-I-E
- I would not have as many leaves INSIDE my house as outside.
- I would not look strangely at people who think having ONE dog/cat ties them down too much.
- I would not be as happy!

hmmm…brilliant. Thus how it works. This one I liked “When the doorbell rings, I could get to the door without wading through fuzzy bodies who beat me there.”
Thanks
