A dog's life

I've been giving it a lot of thought and I've decided-I want to be reincarnated as one of my puppies.

The more I think about it the more I wouldn't mind having my dogs' lives. What's not to love? Your day is packed with walks, playtime and treats. And unlike a child who eventually matures into an adult, there are no expectations. No bills to pay. No credit score to monitor. No 401Ks, mortgages, car payments or student loans. You never "grow up", you never have responsibilities. You simply are.

Your only concession is your dignity- but as a dog how much dignity do you really need? I mean you eat your own poop. You may have to put up with an occasional doggie dress and baby talk from your human but the implicit meaning behind these embarrassing displays is pure love and adoration. And who doesn't want that? It's a great gig.

So I say when my time comes- God send me back as a beloved and pampered Chihuahua. And if possible...fully intact. Amen.
