Self Talk
Note to self: If the sugar bowl is empty, do not refill it before washing it first. Note to self: Never leave the margarine container on the counter - you've made this mistake 3 times in the last year and each time it dissapears and you've suffered the consequences. Note to self: Never, ever leave a paint can on the kitchen floor without making sure it is completely sealed!!! (Thankfully after a near heart attack and lots of paper towels for quick mop up the emergency was solved.) Next time you may not be so lucky! Note to self:Never eat pizza while sitting on the couch. It reminded me of sharks on an eating frenzy. Nope never again! Note to self: Reminds self that each time I get up all three dogs follow me and I long for the old days of peace and freedom of movement in my own house. I may look back fondly at these days. So...do you guys do any self talk with your Sheepies? Or I am the only nutty one? |

| You are not the only one who has more than one sheepie and plenty of things to remember: Note to self, don't forget to put up the garbage can before leaving for work. Note to self, don't leave anything on the counters that is either breakable or edible. Note to self...
I love the feeding frenzy, you are so right that is exactly what it feels like. I also am followed everywhere, I have a new name. Pied Piper of Sheepiedom. No matter where I go, I have two or three ( when Daisy is over for a visit) follow me everywhere. Who goes to the bathroom alone? I for one don't anymore. Not fun when you are sick and they are looking at you very intently. I guess they are in awe that it can come out both ends at the same time.....  I know, gross but true.
Luck with the feeding frenzy, cause I know you will still eat pizza on the couch.... I will do all the same things too. |
| Here's a few nature laws Lennon and Sofa have discovered in their humble pursue of scientific knowledge:
Law of universal sheepdog gravitation: The attraction that a piece of paper exercises over a sheepdog is the 10th power of the piece of paper's importance to the sheepdog's owner and increases with the distance the owner is from that piece of paper. This attraction is potenciated by the number of days you had to wait to get the piece of paper and the number of official seals it bares. Law of food tastiness: The tastiness and counsumption danger level of an item to a sheepdog is the square power of times owner mentions the "NO!" word when a given sheepdog approaches the given food source. Lennon's 4th law of motion: The relative speed of a sheepdog and an stationary object is directly proportional the the breakability of the item. This law also states that the trajectory followed by a sheepdog will be modified to be closer to the object because of the influence of the Law of universal sheepdog gravitation. Kepawler's 1st law of sheepdog orbits: The orbit of a sheepdog about a food item placed on master's hand is an ellipse with the master's center of mass at one focus. Kepawler's 2nd law of sheepdog orbits: A line joining a sheepdog and the tasty item sweeps out unequal areas in equal intervals of time to provide erratic movement that will increase the chance of snatching the tasty item in front of master's eyes. Kepawler's 3rd law of sheepdog orbits:The squares of the periods of the dog's orbits are proportional to the tastiness of the item master is holding and directly proportional to the number of guests sitting at the table at that time. |
| Very funny!
My favorite laws; Schnaper's First Law of Motion: An errantly thrown ball will always come to rest in the least accessible corner. Schnaper's First Law of Sones: A sheepdog's bark volume is inversely proportional to both: a) The master's desire for silence (Ds), and b) The amount of time remaining in the movie(Tr) and is expressed as a function of Tr to the power of Ds. This law is not to be confused with Schnaper's first law of Scones, which is a derivative function of Lenon's Law of food tastiness, above. |
| LMAO!!!i dont have 2 sheepies but i do have 2large dogs and eating any where but the dinning room table is nothing but a comedy show!!LOL!! Thanks for reminding me at this stressful day how funny our buddies truely are... |
Just to let you all know, I am currently furiously taking notes on all sheepdog laws, and will be turning my work in to Profs. Saul and Ron upon completion of my Sheepdog Ownership 101 course... Schnapers law of scones...mumble mumble... scribble scribble... Karen  |
| Oh you guys are so humorous!!! I was laughing so hard when reading everyone's post!! Thanks for that!!
>>still wiping tears from eyes Marianne and the boys |
| My note to self: Please remember to lock comet in the kitchen when 8 yr old is playing with his chemistry set.
Let me set the picture. Christmas afternoon I am wiped out on the couch and my oldest is playing video games dogs are wandering around and my 8 year old is contently playing with his new chemistry set. I hear a weird thump and a COMET. I get up and come running into the dining room where I see the front of my sheepie is now blue. Not any blue but drano blue. and my cream colored carpet is drano blue. With some scrubbing my carpet is now easter egg blue however poor comet will remain ever fading blue for a few more washings. Thank god it isnt poisonous how would I have explained that. Melissa and Family |
| Too Funny!!! A Blue Sheepdog. I am glad it will come out....as for your carpeting that might be a different story. I would love to see a picture of Comet. I thought I was in trouble when Pepsi ate a charcoal briquette and his beard turned black... I can't imagine Blue... |
| Note to self: The dog ate my homework may be a legitimate excuse from our house.
Note to self: One of the gates in the hallway is higher than the others. Go around it not over it. The ride to the floor on your kneecaps is brutal! |
| LOL
The dog ate my homework, and pens, and pencils, and calculators, etc... IS a legitimate excuse! LOL |
| Any new notes to self or laws in the last 2 years? |
| Note to self: Make sure to pull out the dryer sheet before leaving a laundry basket on the floor. |
| The cell phone insurance company will ask what happened to your phone. The dog ate it is an acceptable answer when you advise them you have a 5 month old Old English Sheepdog Puppy.
When you own 3 sheepdogs - your vet's phone # will be programmed into your speed dial on your telephone. |
BatonRougeSheepies wrote: your vet's phone # will be programmed into your speed dial on your telephone. Yes, but will the puppy dial the vet while chewing up the phone? |
| note to self: anything on the tables, floor, counter, garbage, or trash cans is fair game for puppies.
puppy note to self: if it is in the trash can it must be there by mistake and should be removed immediately and strewn about the house.(again) puppy note to self: see above, since the trash can is empty, I'll just chew it too. puppy note to self: cake carrier cracks like an egg when pulled off of the counter but it makes aloud noise when it does so always wait until moms are gone. note to self: put cake carrier in microwave to keep it from being pulled off onto the floor puppy note to self: always liberate what ever is being held captive in a plastic bag, (it a, may be edible, b, may be fun to chew). |
