10 ways to know you are spoiling your dog!

Hello all,

What a beautiful week it has been here in Northeast Ohio. Warm sunny days followed by cool nights. Great for busy days and sleeping at night!


This month, when I was looking at all of the things that happened in September, I couldn’t believe the number of TV Premier Anniversary’s there were. Some of the more popular shows were:

25th Anniversary of “The Cosby Show”

40th Anniversary of “Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?” Isn't he one of the coolest dogs ever?

45th Anniversary of “The Munster’s” and “Flipper”

55th Anniversary of “The Tonight Show”

And can you believe it, it is the 60th Anniversary of “The Lone Ranger”

Those are some great shows; I especially like Scooby and Flipper! Pass that popcorn!

Some other interesting dates in September are:

13th – Grandparents Day
20th – Women’s Friendship Day
26th – Family Health and Fitness Day USA - why not take you dog for a walk?
28th – Family Day – A Day to eat dinner with the children. Shouldn't you do that every day?

Wow, a lot of family activities, I like that too! Instead of a joke this month, I thought that I would have you picture David Letterman and introduce the

Top Ten Signs You Spoil Your Dog:

10. You think begging for table scraps is beneath him, so you let your dog eat at the table with you.
9. You take him to the supermarket and let him pick out his own dog food.
8. Your husband comes home from work, looks at the stew on the stove and asks: "Is this people food or dog food?"
7. You bought matching His & Hers place mats for your dog and yourself.
6. At dinner parties you always have to double-check the butter for visible lick marks, before putting it on the table.
5. Your dog gets to vote on where to spend the next family vacation.
4. You don't care if you or your spouse are comfortable at night, as long as Fido has enough room on the bed.
3. You complain about the rising costs of groceries, but you don't think twice about spending a fortune on doggie treats.
2. Your dog always gets the best spot on the couch and sometimes he even gets to hold the remote.

and now with a drum roll.......






1. He has his own e-mail address.



#4 is true in my house, I usually get the first pick of the bed, since I’m there first! And Gosh, so is #1… is something wrong with that?? He-he
