Trick and Treat: Not Funny


I’ve got a beef to make, and I’m speaking here for a lot of dogs just like me.  We love treats, no doubt about it.  But you humans are inhuman the way you make us beg and do tricks.  Some of the things we have to do are make us look downright foolish.  Let me tell you what I’m forced to suffer through.  Sometimes my daddy makes me do some tricks, which I endure.  But that’s not enough.  Then he puts the treat down on the floor and makes me SIT and STAY for a long time.  It’s really painful for me to wait and sit like that and he just stares at me, grinning.  Why not just give me the treat?  Does he know it really hurts me, like I’m ready to burst?


OK, that’s my story but all things considered, it’s still worth getting the kong stuffed with hamburger.  I’m wondering if other dogs can share their horror stories.

Tommy, thank you, thank you, thank you for publicizing this issue. Just look at this video. Have you ever seen such cruelty? they put it on my nose, of all places, and make me 'stay'. My nose! That's the most sensative place on a dog's body.:

Let me get this straight. Your only discernable skill is in the entertainment industry. So your Daddy asks you to work in that industry for his entertainment in exchange for your salary (which you prefer to take in the form of hamburger, rather than cash--perhaps because you've never developed an instinct to save). And you object to this and demand thast your salary just be given to you in the form of welfare? Lazy bum.

TOMMY,
YOU SHOULD PROTEST........LOUDLY! IT IS SO INHUMANE WHAT YOUR PATERNAL HUMAN PUTS YOU THROUGH. JUST FOR A LITTLE GRUB. FOR HIS AMUSEMENT YET! I THINK YOU SHOULD GO ON A RAMPAGE BY SCURRYING THROUGH THE HOUSE WHILE HE`S AWAY(SUPPOSEDLY AT WORK WINK WINK)AND SEEK SOME OF HIS 'NEEDY' CLOTHES AND HIDE THEM! I`M SURE A SMART COOKIE AS YOU,CAN THINK UP EVEN MORE SNEAKY'TRICKS' YOU CAN PULL ON HIM. I`D LOVE TO READ HIS RESULTING RAMPAGE UPON COMING HOME TO THIS!
AN ADMIRING FAN

Obviously your owners think you walking on your hind legs IS funny. Why should thery give you food if you wonm't entrertain them? You think just lying around sleeping when you saren't leaving poop for them to pick up earns you a living? Get real.
