Pet of the Week: Pete

A little humor for your Saturday! How many dogs and cats does it take to change a lightbulb? According to this little gem it depends on which breed you ask:

Golden Retriever: The sun is shining, the day is young, we’ve got our whole lives ahead of us, and you’re inside worrying about a burned out bulb?

Border Collie: Just one. And then I’ll replace any wiring that’s not up to code.

Chihuahua: We don’t need no stinking light bulb.

Dachshund: You know I can’t reach that stupid lamp!

Rottweiler: Make me!

Boxer: Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the dark.

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

German Shepherd: I’ll change it as soon as I’ve led these people from the dark, checked to make sure I haven’t missed any, and made just one more perimeter patrol to see that no one has tried to take advantage of the situation.

Jack Russell Terrier: I’ll just pop it in while I’m bouncing off the walls and furniture.

Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? I’m sorry, but I don’t see a light bulb!

Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark.

Greyhound: It isn’t moving. Who cares?

Australian Shepherd: First, I’ll put all the light bulbs in a little circle…

Poodle: I’ll just blow in the Border Collie’s ear and he’ll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.

Corgi: Sure, problem. I’ll need a ladder. And a treat. Now hand me the bulb. And a treat. Take this burnt out one. Gimme a treat. And we’re done. I need a treat. And while you put away the ladder and throw out the old bulb, I’ll hoover the carpet looking for any crumbs I may have dropped. Look how clean this rug is. Gimme another treat.

Boston terrier: You want me to do what? Change what light buld? That light bulb? Does it squeak? Are you sure? And your certain it’s that light bulb you what changed?

Hound Dog: If you slept all night and most of the day like a sane person you would not need that stupid light.

…

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

Cats do not change light bulbs. People change light bulbs. So, the real question is: “How long will it be before I can expect some light, some dinner, and a massage?”

How Many Dogs and Cats Does it Take to Change a Lightbulb?

Fellow b5′er Marijke writes:

“Dee is a 9 year old retired greyhound brood mom. Her racing name was Cee Bar Denise and she had 3 litters before she retired and we adopted her this past November. This is her very first (and only!) home with her very own forever couch and forever family. She adapted to home and family life without a single bit of trouble.

“We call her Brat girl and numerous other names as she is a sassy, bratty, loving girl. She’s my first female dog ever and she’s gorgeous. Many people have the mistaken belief that greyhounds are high maintenance and difficult dogs to have, but they aren’t called 45 mph couch potatoes for nothing!

“Dee is our second greyhound. We had a beautiful red fawn greyhound, named Oscar, who died of cancer this past August, the week before he turned five years old. His racing name was Answer to Chevy, but he only raced four times before his owner and trainer realized that it was not meant to be. He came to us when he was 22 months old. Sadly, he died just a week after a book about him was published: Oscar’s Diaries, Life as a Retired Greyhound.”

Thanks, Marijke!
