The following is a list compiled from the White German Shepherd email list members.  Check back often the list is sure to grow.

 "I will not steal the grass sods AFTER they have been laid"

"I will not run through the patio door screen more then twice a week"

"I will not drop rocks in my kiddy pool"

"I will not play tug-o-war with Shunka's (my doggie mom) tail"

"I will not eat soap bars, my mouth really isn't that dirty."

"Caterpillars are not crawling hors d'oeurves."

"I will not eat up all of moms bubbles in her bath before she gets in it"

"I will not steal the roast off the counter and eat half, leaving the cat with the rest, and the blame."

"Bees are not really that tasty"

I will not steal apples from the fruit bowl, and then, having licked them thoroughly, PUT THEM BACK if they are not yummy enough.

I will not pick up my water dish when it is almost empty, and trail it all over the house until I find Mum, to show her I am thirsty.

I am not deaf.

Horse medication is for horses.  If I keep stealing it, I will keep on having to have my stomach pumped (Sunday evenings, double rates for the vet).

"I will not stand with my front paws on the cat's table and eat his food. The bowl slides around on the table then falls off, banging on the floor, which scares me, then I get caught."

"I will not put my front feet in my water bowl in the kitchen. Mommy gets upset when she slips on the wet floor and almost busts her butt."

I will not play tug-of-war with the towel Mommy uses to wipe up the water on the kitchen floor."

"I will not put my muddy feet in the toilet bowl when I'm getting a drink."

"Sticks, twigs with dried leaves, logs, and dirt clods are not food. I will not bring them in the house and shred them on the living room floor."

"I will not stand on the broken sticks, twigs, logs, and dirt clods while Mommy is picking them up off the living room floor."

"I will not drink my water too fast, then go to my humans for petting and belch, spitting up the water on their lap."

"I will not steal pecans from the bowl on the coffee table at Christmas time, even though I try to be considerate and leave the shells in a nice, neat pile on the floor."

"I will refrain from lying in front of the oven when Mom is cooking. For some reason she gets nervous about that."

"I will do my best to make sure all the dishes in the dishwasher have no hard, sticky stuff on them that won't come clean."

"It is my job to police the kitchen floor, making sure any morsels of food are picked up immediately. I'm sure this saves my Mom lots of clean-up time. Problem is, now I have to compete with Komet for this job, and that little guy is fast!"

"I will not shake during my bath and soak my mom."

"I will not run from the visiting Yorkie, even though she is older then I, she is allot smaller and squishable."  (This happened today when my sister came over for a visit and brought her Yorkie)

"I will not play with and then eat my moms bath beads. They are not REALLY balls and I don't need any oil in my diet, my fur is healthy enough."

"I will not drop my soggy tennis ball in my moms lap when she is wearing shorts."

"I will not lick the sun tan lotion off my moms sisters legs when she is lying asleep in the sun. Other then to wake her when she has been out to long."

I will not eat all the other dogs' food then go over to my bowl.

"I will not shake one of the cats in my mouth as if she was a squealer"

"I will not sit on the table like one the cats, cause I am not jealous of any of the cats in the house"

I will not harass the cat; nor will I partake of truffles from the litter box.

I will not run to the living room with dead animals and hide them under the couch on the White carpet mommy bought because I shed. (Whew)

"I will not put my tennis ball into Mummy's cereal bowl while she's trying to eat breakfast!"  -- Ally

I will not slide open the shower door with my nose so I can just watch.

I will not fall asleep under the coffee table and when I hear something jump up and smack my head every time.

I will not continue to lick Inde's (the other dog) face, even when she snarls at me, and end up getting my lip bit.

I will slow down going out the doggy door or one day mom says I will end up wearing it.

I will not put my toys in front of Inde until she steals them from me and then go and tattle to my mom when she takes it.
