This is why some dogs can’t live inside the house
This dog we have walked up when I was like 10 or 11 years old. I named him and pal and we have had him every since. He walked up as just a puppy and well we just could not send him away. Having the farm its sad but over the years many dogs are dropped off as people think we can feed them just milk for some reason.
Lets feed them only milk and see how long they live….
Anyways, Pal is our big farm dog. For years he would not ride in our truck before we had our atv’s and then he started to ride in the back of the truck. He would jump up into the back of it instead of running up the road. We clocked him at close to 40 when he was younger.
Now we have atv’s and he rides it. We made a seat for us and him plus we put a backrest on it which helps keep the old dog from rolling off as we chase after cows and drive around.
He will ride about anything. Once we stacked a bunch of hay on the back of the atv until it was like 8 feet high and we stuck him on top of the hay and drove down the road. Here is a pic of him riding the LAWN MOWER 3 years ago:
Well he just cant stand not being able to be around his family all the time. He loves to come inside and watch us eat plus we have the AC on so its cooler inside than outside. The only problem is he sheds badly. I hope my backstory has not bored you all but I just wanted to talk a bit about him before I post the picture that I wrote this post for in the first place.
Some animals just cant live inside the house:
He had more hair that could have been brushed out. The pile is almost as big as he is!

What a cool dog! He is a true “pal”. I have two large dogs and 3 cats who are all shedding like crazy right now. You will probably get that much hair again in a week or so.

This is why dogs are disgusting and vile creatures. So filthy, lackluster and unintelligent. They’re totally dependent on us humans for survival. Cats > Dogs.

Yes my roomates cat is way better than dogs. Instead of waking up around 8, it wakes up at 6 and meows loudly ( it sounds like a constipated duck) in my ear til i wake up and feed it. It needs to feed every several hours and cries when no one is around. Then after it eats, it throws up on the carpet and then cries for food again. All it does all day is lie around looking like a beached whale. Totally better than my dogs which eat only several times a day, frolic a lot and play with me and understand the tones of my voice. Yah!

*facepalm*
Brian if your going to insult Dogs atleast do it right and get the “>” the right way round, you’ve just said Dogs are better. Cats and Dogs both have their good sides and bads…They both make awesome pets.

Umm.. Brian has the greater than symbol the right way around…. And dogs are cool, cats are lower maintenance though. If we go away for the weekend we can just leave a big bowl of food in the shed for my cats and stick em outside. But we have to either take my dog with us or get someone to take care of him. :/
