You know you are owned by a Saint Bernard when...




• You measure their height by the slobber line across the wall

• Your huge lazy boy recliner is just big enough to be "the dog’s chair".

• You choose your wall paint color by what hides slobber the best.

• You duck and run for cover when your dog is about to sneeze.

• You understand the difference between shedding and "blowing the coat"

• You go through several vacuum cleaners a year

• You have a part time job just to pay for the dog food

• Your dog can "counter surf" just by turning his head and grabbing as he walks by

• You open the door when you come home and then flatten yourself against the wall to avoid an excited dog running to greet you

• You know sheer terror when your dog is REALLY happy and running towards you

• Your neighbors refer to your pet as "the neighborhood pony"

• You've planned out the "tail wagging” zone on every table

• Closing the trash doesn't help because your dog can drag off the whole trash can

• You know trying to shove a totally asleep Saint Bernard off the bed is fruitless

• Your dog’s favorite ball for catch is the size of a small basketball

• Every time you sit in the floor your dog tries to "rescue " you

• You find out your tub is just really a huge dog bed in his eyes

• You have realized being barefoot around a saint is hazardous to your health

• You can never have more than one friend in your car with the dog because he fills the entire back seat

• You carry towels everywhere for doggie "dribbles" and to dry your face if he kisses your cheek

• Your dog can sit on the couch without taking his feet off the floor

• You could make a Chihuahua with the dog hair that gets on your clothes


• Last but most important...you know in spite of it all you've got the most loyal companion and friend ever!

Boomer the lap dog



Hello!
I'll be back very soon with some articles and tips. Life has just been crazy! In the meantime
here is a picture of Boomer sitting on a friend. It's OK, the friend let him :)
have you ever noticed that big dogs often think they are lap dogs? Sometimes I don't think they really understand how big they are!
