CANIS FAMILIARIS


"A house without either a cat or a dog is the house of a scoundrel."
                                                             - Portuguese Proverb

"If you are a dog and your owner suggests that you wear a sweater... suggest that he wear a tail."  
                                                                 ~Fran Lebowitz


"You can say any fool thing to a dog, and the dog will give you this look that says, `My God, you're RIGHT! I NEVER would've thought of that!'"
                                                            - Dave Barry


"A dog is one of the remaining reasons why some people can be persuaded to go for a walk."  
                                                                  ~O.A. Battista


"Ever wonder where you'd end up if you took your dog for a walk and never once pulled back on the leash? " 
                                                                    ~Robert Brault


"I named my dog Stay so I can say, "Come here, Stay.  Come here, Stay."  
                                                       ~Steven Wright



"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will
 ign
ore him." 


                                                    ~ Dereke Rita

  3. Those pets are all cute--I love every on eof those quotations. I'm kind of partial to the Steven Wright, though--too funny: you can always count on him for a comical take on anything.
