PET OWNER JERKS – CHAPTER EIGHT

YOU’RE A JERK IF… You let your dog jump on, sniff, hump, and lick your guests.

Believe it or not, most of us don’t like this stuff. When the doorbell rings it is time to put the dog away unless it is your dog’s obedience trainer.   “Oh, he’s very friendly”, “He wants to get to know you”, “He won’t bite”, is meaningless to us. We don’t care. We came to visit you, not your dog. Please cage him up and keep him quiet.
