Post a Golden Retriever rule: We all know about the....

[liberalitch]

Golden Rule. But what about golden retriever rules?

Here's one: Don't put that beer on the coffee table.... you know my tail is just gonna take it out.

1. Cherish the Goldens

you will be the better for it. :)
Another rule...
Golden's will pick up laundry left on the floor. Don't leave anything around that you don't want paraded around in front of house guests.

2. panties, bras, boxers..... an endless source of entertainment....

and..... having them in my mouth brings me closer to you!

13. Wow you are so right!

Our old Golden used to take my dirty underwear and leave it out on the driveway, especially right around the time the mailman would appear everyday.

That little guy was a devil. We used to live near the town's skating rink and one day he sneaked out and went down to the rink, apparently repeatedly, and brought the poor little kids' shoes and boots (about a dozen) back to our driveway. I only know this because I happened to look out the window and saw two little kids walking up the hill to our yard in their skates.

We then had a Black Lab, never touched a sock.

Now with our new Golden, it's dirty underwear everywhere. In fact his morning, he had in his mouth, the underwear, baseball cap and car keys of the teenager who attended my daughter's sleep over last night.

It's been years since I slept with a dog (not counting ex-husbands, of course) and now I know why!

17. what a great looking dog!

Does he hide stuff under those cushions? mine does..dirty underwear, whatever, he looks so much like my guy Boodah. Goldens are just the best dogs!

[Cannikin]

18. They really are. I dont know what I'd do without him.

[hatredisnotavalue]

19. Me too

I have never had a better friend in my life. :)

20. He looks so much like my Boodah

and I am in Maine, I bet they are related.

3. One of these days I WILL catch my tail. n/t

[liberalitch]

4. And then you'll all see... that...

it IS a separate entity.....

[Gormy Cuss]

5. Allow extra time for my walks.

You know that I need to say hello and look for validation from every human we meet. Please plan accordingly.

[liberalitch]

8. AND if there's someone I've NEVER seen before.....

nose in bathingsuit area!

7. If another dog tries to get my tennis ball

I am allowed to eat him.

[mdmc]

9. kick

:kick:

[hatredisnotavalue]

11. Love everyone!

Including your ugly sister.

12. I want that toy ONLY if another dog currently has it.

[salin]

14. Just because they are nine and have never caught the squirrel

assume that a yucky dead squirrel won't suddenly appear "retrieved". Our late ole gal suddenly hit pay dirt with the squirrels at nine. Had to figure out something to do after the third 'retrieved' one. Fortunately the new one year old shows no such talent... YET.
