a dOGGY DICTIONARY
humor - a dogs definition of some common words

Author Unknown
Bath:
This is a process by which the humans drench the floor, walls and themselves. You can
help by shaking vigorously and frequently.

Bicycles:
Two-wheeled exercise machines, invented for dogs to control body fat. To get maximum
aerobic benefit, you must hide behind a bush and dash out, bark loudly and run
alongside for a few yards; the person then swerves, and falls into the bushes, and you
prance away.

Bump:
The best way to get your human's attention when they are drinking a fresh cup of
coffee or tea.

Deafness:
This is a malady which affects dogs when their person wants them in and they want to
stay out. Symptoms include staring blankly at the person, then running in the opposite
direction, or lying down.

DOG BED:
any soft, clean surface, such as the white bedspread in the guest room or the newly
upholstered couch in the living room.

DROOL:
Is what you do when your persons have food and you don’t. To do this properly you
must sit as close as you can and look sad and let the drool fall to the floor, or better
yet, on their laps.

GARBAGE CAN:
A container which your neighbours put out once a week to test your ingenuity. You
must stand on your hind legs and try to push the lid off with your nose. If you do it right
you are rewarded with margarine wrappers to shred, beef bones to consume and
mouldy crusts of bread.

GOOSE BUMP:
A manoevre to use as a last resort when the Regular Bump doesn’t get the attention
you require…..especially effective when combined with The Sniff. See above.

LEAN:
Every good dog’s response to the command “sit!” especially if your person is dressed
for an evening out. Incredibly effective before black-tie events.

LEASH:
A strap which attaches to your collar, enabling you to lead your person where you want
him/her to go.

LOVE:
Is a feeling of intense affection, given freely and without restriction. The best way you
can show your love is to wag your tail. If you’re lucky, a human will love you in return

SNIFF:
A social custom to use when you greet other dogs. Place your nose as close as you
can to the other dog’s rear end and inhale deeply, repeat several times, or until your
person makes you stop.

SOFAS:
Are to dogs like napkins are to people. After eating it is polite to run up and down the
front of the sofa and wipe your whiskers clean.

THUNDER:
This is a signal that the world is coming to an end. Humans remain amazingly calm
during thunderstorms, so it is necessary to warn them of the danger by trembling
uncontrollably, panting, rolling your eyes wildly, and following at their heels.

WASTEBASKET:
This is a dog toy filled with paper, envelopes, and old candy wrapper. When you get
bored, turn over the basket and strew the papers all over the house until your person
comes home
