WASHINGTON (Reuters) - People who think they may have H1N1 flu need to stay away from work, avoid sneezing on their spouses and children and now, they have someone else to worry about infecting too -- their pets...

check with your vet if your dog is acting “puny”. Mine gave me some good advice...
If you haven't you might want to take a shot!
"hey Sniffels,take dat s*** outside and stay away from my bone wholes"
"Just, damn!"
Ummm....
You’d better feel her nose too. Is it warm?
I’m no vet, but I’ll be glad to examine her.

So what you’re saying is “I rike shy knees”...?

Setting: Vet’s office]
(Smuckers is getting examined by a vet)
VET: What are the symptoms?
KRAMER: Well, uh.. it hurts when he swallows. Expecially when he drinks orange juice. (Vet gives him a look) I mean, uh.. dog food.. juice. (Adding) What’s worse - he has a nagging cough. (Smucker’s coughs) Yeah, that’s it. That’s it.
VET: Yeah, well, uh - we’ve been seeing a lot of this lately. Been drinking from the toilet?
KRAMER: (Offended) What? No. That’s disgusting..
(Scene ends)
Don’t forget to check for ticks too, they like to hide in crevices, you know....
..he said it, not me
Everytime you take a sip
In this smoky atmosphere
You press that bottle to your lips
And I wish I was your beer
And in the small there of your back
Your jeans are playing peek-a-boo
I’d like to see the other half
Of your butterfly tattoo
Hey that gives me an idea
Lets get out of this bar
And drive out into the country
And find a place to park
‘Cause I’d like to see you out in the moonlight
I’d like to kiss you way back in the sticks
I’d like to walk you through a field of wildflowers
And I’d like to check you for ticks
I know the perfect little path
In these woods I used to hunt
Don’t worry babe, I’ve got your back
And I’ve also got your front
I’d hate to waste a night like this
I’ll keep you safe you wait and see
The only thing allowed to crawl all over you
When we get there is me
You know ever guy in here tonight
Would like to take you home
But I’ve got way more class than them
And that ain’t what I want
‘Cause I’d like to see you out in the moonlight
I’d like to kiss you way back in the sticks
I’d like to walk you through a field of wildflowers
And I’d like to check you for ticks
Oooh, you never know where one might be
And oooh, there’s lots of places that are hard to reach
I’d like to see you out in the moonlight
I’d like to kiss you way back in the sticks
I’d like to walk you through a field of wildflowers
And I’d like to check you for ticks
Oh, I’d sure like to check you for ticks

Suuuuurrrre he did, LOL!
Seriously, I have been telling my clients for years that cats, ferrets and birds are susceptible to the strains we get concerning the flu.
Being a victim of Lyme disease, I check often. But, let’s not get so personal (if female, send me a pic and then I’ll decide!)
That’s OK - if they get sick and die, just eat them (recommended to fight Gore-Bull warming).
What’s sad is that some dolts will be persuaded to take steps for their dog or cat that wouldn’t do it for their children.
