Owners Behaving Badly?
By Josie
29 September 2007

If you have  badly behaved owners, you might want to know how to modify that unwanted behaviour, and live in peace with them. If you have recently gained a new owner would you like to understand how to live together successfully, and happily? If they are difficult to handle, you might want to learn how to change that.
 




New!!!!! Happy Owner Training Classes

Would you like to:

·
        
Attend happy, friendly classes?
·         Meet like minded owner dogs?
·         Find out how to communicate properly with your owner through fun training?
·         Have your owner understand and respect you?
·         Work with a professional trainer/behaviourist, who assesses her peers for the Owner Club?


Then contact Josie on 2345 99567 for details of new courses starting shortly in your area.


Are your owners behaving badly?
   Do they drive you up the wall?
When you take them for their walkies
   Do they run to fetch their ball?

Is he difficult to handle?
   When you whistle he won’t come?
Does she wear some stinky perfume –
   And it’s not worn on her bum?

Do they both obey instructions?
   Have they learned to sit and wait
For food on dishes on the floor
   Instead of on their plates?

Do they ask to use the toilet
   And for their treats sit up and beg?
Can they balance a biscuit on the nose
   And politely cock a leg?

With our experience and training
   We know exactly what to do.
For our educational courses
   Will help you through and through.

Be mentored in the early years –
   Put your owners through their paces.
With our new owner-guidance course
   You’ll keep them firmly in their places.

Gives Dog-geral a whole new meaning Josie.

Enjoyed. You missed a trick though: on the owners not actually sniffing rear ends and licking thier own - well - you know what I mean.

I had to draw the line somewhere - especially at this time of night! You dreadful man! ha ha I saw some people advertising "dog training courses" using many of the words in my poem, and thought how funny it would be the other way round. I am a dog person. Sadly my Jack Russell, Gemma, died a year ago and is sadly missed. She certainly had us trained in every way and lived to be well over 18 as a result. If I was cared so well, I would live to be very old too.

I enjoyed this too, and could remember our dog training us over the years. But a well-trained owner is richly rewarded.

This is good fun Josie and it made me laugh. I can just see this as the subject for the next reality TV program.
Dogs

In actual fact, the dogs which I have had were far superior in many ways to human beings, and I could gladly aspire to being as they have been. Their only aim in life was to please me, and if they thought that I was annoyed in any way with them, they would drop their tails, and with eyes looking dreadfully sad, slope off to their beds. I could never ever have imagined that my dogs didn't love me and wouldn't have stood by me come rain or shine. Their loyalty and devotion was something almost unimaginable, and I am not the only one who has felt like this about dogs. They deserve good owners.
