Since we have that thread about the AZ dog that got shot when he entered the yard of an LE (the shooter), maybe we need to clarify the rules, as seen from Spot's point of view.

1.  Dick and Jane were OK.
2.  Dogs don't read.  Your signs mean nothing.
3.  We are animals.  Your laws are for your kind.
4,  Any fire hydrant, tree, or unmoving tire needs to be checked out and marked if need be.
5.  If you leave that plate all alone, it's a GIMME.  You'd do that for your best friend.
6.  We're special. Do you thing GOD named us by accident?
7.  Our territory has nothing to do with your stakes and fences.  We figure it out with help from our masters and mistresses.
8.  You're lucky we can't write and read.  Otherwise, the Dog News would inform our brothers and sisters about any wrong you do to us.
9.  If we detect fear on you, there must be something wrong.  Maybe it's you.
10. If you won't let us sniff your hand, we wonder what your problem is.
11. That leg of yours is just there in our time of, uh, well just don't expect us to call you in the morning.
12. We sniff out anything interesting.  If you want your crotch left alone, it's your job not to smell funky.
13. It's OK for us to lick ourselves.   You're just jealous.
14. If we're not well-trained, don't blame us.  It's our owners' fault.
15. Some of you may think it's funny to antagonize us.  If we're hostile for no apparent reason, maybe it was someone who looks like you.

I like it
