How many dogs does it take to change a lightbulb?
Jump to Comments
well, this does not mention Dalmatians nor pit bulls, but it’s still funny…
from ‘Why Does My Dog Act That Way?’, by Dr. Stanley Coren. “How many dogs does it take to change a lightbulb?” … it depends upon the breed.
- Border Collie: Just one, but why not let me change the light fixture so that it will accept fluorescent bulbs, which are much more efficient?
- Bulldog: Don’t bother; I’ll just lie here in the dark.
- German Shepherd: Just one, but it will have to wait until I’ve rescued those people trapped in the dark and led them to safety, and then checked the house to make sure that no one has entered under cover of darkness to take advantage of the situation.
- Shetland sheepdog: I will as soon as I arrange all of the new bulbs in a tight and orderly little circle.
- Golden retriever: The sun is shining, we’ve got no work to do today, I’ve got this neat red ball here, and you’re inside worrying about some silly lightbulb?
- Rottweiller: Go ahead, and see if you’re tough enough to make me!
- Corgi: First, I’ll bark until the old bulb leaves of its own accord and then I’ll nip at the new one until it goes into the socket…
- Labrador retriever: I can do it! Please!….Please…I can. You know I can. Please….
- Greyhound: It isn’t moving, so who cares?
- Pointer: I see it. There it is. Look, it’s right there…
- Jack Russell terrier: Me! I can reach it! All I have to do is to keep bouncing off the furniture and walls.
- Poodle: I’ll just whisper sweet nothings into the Border collie’s ear and he’ll do it. By the time he’s finished putting in the new light fixture, my nails will be dry.
