Top Ten Vacation Tips For Dogs
1) Try to take as many humans with you as possible. They have opposable thumbs, so they can open doors & refrigerators, open cans, carry things and perform lots of services that are really useful to us dogs. The more humans you have around, the better the chances you have for fun and snacks. On my vacation, I had about half a dozen of them to wait on me.
2) Travel with your sister. If you don't have one, get one. Not only is it real fun to have somebody to run next to,she is great to nap on in the car.
3) Have a hobbie.My sister loves to chase the ball, so she loves to travel to new places and chase the ball. I like to nap at new places, have snacks, and meet people. Hobbies are most fun when you go new places, then when you get back you can compare places you've been.
4) When you are traveling,drink lots of water.That makes the humans happy and then you get to stop at more places and smell the smells.Pee before you get into the car.
5) Nap when you can, seize the moment!
6) In the morning,if the humans are sitting around using big words and have no food on the table, take a pee and go back to bed.Also,at night if there is a campfire and there is no food left,go to bed they are just going to chat and not do anything eggsciting.
7) When the humans are eating, don't beg for food. Take a good position under, or near, the table and watch for spills. If you have followed step 1,you will definitely make out from spills and then you will get good points for not begging.Then they will give you more food. Remember, begging is tacky.
8) If any human looks sad, kiss them -- but take it easy on the tongue action and keep it dry.
9) Engage with the humans. Try to make little noises, and touch the humans with your nose and paw to make contact.
10) Try not to bark. Watch the humans for clues, don't listen to the other dogs around. If another dog is getting in trouble, be aloof and look cute.

im strolls into the paint section of a hardware store and walks up to the assistant."I'd like a pint of canary-colored paint," he says.
"Certainly," says the clerk."Mind if I ask why you need it?"
"My parakeet," says Jim. "See,I want to enter him in a canary contest.He sings so sweetly that I know he's sure to win."
"Well,you can't do that,Man!" the assistant says. "The chemicals in the paint will almost certainly kill the poor thing!"
"No,they won't," Jim,replies.
"Listen,Buddy,I'll bet you ten bucks your parakeet dies if you try to paint him."
"You're on!" says Jim.
Two days later Jim comes back looking very sheepish and puts ten bucks on the counter in front of the clerk.
"So the paint killed your bird?"
"Indirectly," Jim says. "He seemed to handle the paint okay, but he didn't survive the sanding between coats."
