How to Prepare for a Puppy
Pour cold apple juice on the carpet in several places and walk around barefoot
in the dark.
Wear a sock to work that has had its toes shredded by a blender.
Immediately upon waking, stand outside in the rain in the dark saying,
"Be a good puppy, go potty now - hurry up - come on, let's go!"
Cover all your best clothes with dog hair - for dark clothes you must use
white hair and for light clothes you must use dark.
Float some hair in your first cup of coffee in the morning. Also put some hair
in everything that you cook! And in the pots and pans in your cupboards!!
Run out in the snow/rain in your bare feet to close the gate.
Tip over a basket of clean laundry and scatter clothing all over the floor.
Leave your underwear on the living room floor because that's where the puppy
will drag it anyway... especially when company is coming.
Jump out of your chair shortly before the end of your favorite TV program and run to
the door shouting "No, No! Do THAT OUTSIDE!" Miss the end of the program.
Put chocolate pudding on the carpet in the morning; don't try to clean it up until you
get home from work in the evening.
Gouge the leg of the dining room table several times with a screwdriver...
it's going to get chewed on anyway.
Have a backhoe come in and dig random giant holes in your yard.
Then go out in the early AM and step in a few. Try not to break anything.
Take a warm and cuddly blanket out of the dryer and immediately wrap it
around yourself. This is the feeling you will get when your puppy falls
asleep on your lap.
