How many dogs does it take to change a light bulb?

I was kidding about the "Basque for pig, or sumpthin"...

I assumed, I just wanted to appear knowledgeable. I love Google.

You seem to have a misunderstanding on the nature of cats. You see dogs have always had a master/servant relationship with humans but cats where worshipped as gods by the ancient Egyptians and have never gotten over it. :)

Are you sure it's actually a dog?

,,, yep. The cat's sure too. Did you see a movie called "As good as it gets", with Jack Nicholson in it? The little dog they used in that movie looks just like my one. Lots of character.

That depends a lot on the particular cat in question. One of my current feline threesome would just take up a lot more space, as he lies on the sofa on his back soliciting tummy rubs.

What a dog is thinking:
These things feed me every day, take care of all my needs, provide me shelter, pet me...They must be gods!

What a cat is thinking:
These things feed me every day, take care of all my needs, provide me shelter, pet me...I must be a god!

Lab Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can? Huh? Huh? Huh? Can I?

That pretty much captures the older of my Labs. The younger one would be more inclined to say "How bout if I lay here on my dog bed while my brother, the ever eager retriever, shows me how to do it, at which point the bulb will be changed, so there will be no need for me needlessly to bestir myself."

Australian Cattle Dog:
I won't change it until I get all the bulbs herded into one section of the pen

"Oh, happy, happy, there is a bulb that brings light and it's so cool that someone will see that it is always on so I can see all these neat people around me to love."

I was kidding about the "Basque for pig, or sumpthin" but Hairball loves people and he loves eating...

==========================================

I remember a cute story someone told me or I read about many,many moons ago:

The man comes in to see the vet. "Doc," he says," you gotta do something. It's my folks and their dog. It's one of these little dog...I don't know what kind but they're spoiling it to death! My mother even makes this mutt his own dinner! I mean lamb chops, potatoes, green beans..banana cream pie...And my dad's always feeding him snacks, carrying him around... I mean, it's, like their baby, but they're killing it!..You gotta talk to them,doc!"

So the vet said "Sure, bring them in."

A few minutes in comes der Mama und der Papa und "der Baby"....who looks like a little walking bowling ball.

The flabbergasted vet really scolds the old couple. " "...(yada,yada,yada)...and if you don't get that dog on a strict diet starting right now he's going to be dead in 6 months!"

Whereupon, der Mama and der Papa looked down at der Baby, who looked back up at them with those big lollipop eyes. "Well," said der Mama, "at least he'll die happy."

CRASH! Pop! Yipe! Woof! Woof! WoofWoofWoof!

That sums up my Lab exactly.

As for the cat though, she would more than likely be thinking...Who cares about the light bulb, I can see just fine in the dark thank you very much.

[EuroFrog]

My cat is very loyal to me. I call her, she comes. She does not like other people and never has in her 9 years. Any time I lay down, be it for the night or a nap, she is right there laying with me. She loves to snuggle under the covers. My last cat was the exact same way. Might be something to do with gray cats.....

Thanks for the laugh.

[Joshh86]

no comparison, how many housecats are big enough to seriously hurt a person?

[Joshh86]

Alaskan sled dog: Theres a bulb to change? YES YES YESYESYESYESYES ECT.

[JoeSchem]

If you make the Lab change the light bulb too many times, he'll keep it in his mouth and won't give it back.

Ping!
