Happy Holidays to All! This song has been rolling around in my head for a couple days, so I finally got time to write it down and quiet my brain a little. This is my gift to all of you. I hope you have a wonderful and peaceful holiday season with all your families - skin or fur

The GSP Twelve Days of Christmas

 

On the first day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me
A dead but still edible bird.

On the second day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.

On the third day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.

On the fourth day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me
Four holey panties,
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.


On the fifth day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me
Five dried cat turds,
Four holey panties,
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.


On the sixth day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me

Six chewed up tissues,
Five dried cat turds,
Four holey panties,
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.

 

 

 

 

 


On the seventh day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me
Seven candy wrappers,
Six chewed up tissues,
Five dried cat turds,
Four holey panties,
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.


On the eighth day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me

Eight throwing dummies,
Seven candy wrappers,
Six chewed up tissues,
Five dried cat turds,
Four holey panties,
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.


On the ninth day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me

Nine kitchen sponges,
Eight throwing dummies,
Seven candy wrappers,
Six chewed up tissues,
Five dried cat turds,
Four holey panties,
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.


On the tenth day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me

Ten soggy slippers,
Nine kitchen sponges,
Eight throwing dummies,
Seven candy wrappers,
Six chewed up tissues,
Five dried cat turds,
Four holey panties,
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.


On the eleventh day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me

Eleven cat food cans,
Ten soggy slippers,
Nine kitchen sponges,
Eight throwing dummies,
Seven candy wrappers,
Six chewed up tissues,
Five dried cat turds,
Four holey panties,
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.


On the twelfth day of Christmas,
my Shorthair brought to me

Twelve sloppy kisses,
Eleven cat food cans,
Ten soggy slippers,
Nine kitchen sponges,
Eight throwing dummies,
Seven candy wrappers,
Six chewed up tissues,
Five dried cat turds,
Four holey panties,
Three dead bugs,
Two dirty socks,
And a dead but still edible bird.

Thanks Jean. Brought a smile to my face, especially when you got to the ninth day. Ringo's favorite is kitchen sponges, but they usually get to me in several pieces.

For those that have cats (I have two) there is a baby gate that has a small door at the bottom that the cats can go in and out of, but the gate keeps they dogs away. Works great.

The cat turd line is actually a rememberance of the mutt dog, Einstein, we had who helped us raise our first litter of GSPs. He was probably the most intelligent dog I've ever known. Suffered from a serious lack of patience though. He lived with my in-laws while we were in college and couldn't have dogs. They had an indoor cat. When Einstein decided he needed to be fed, he would go to the kitchen where his bowl was and make a big loud production out of flipping his metal bowl around to get your attention. If you were preoccupied, studying or watching a movie or whatever, he would carry the bowl to you and drop it on your foot (ouch). Then pointedly stare at you to say "Jeez humans are dumb. How come you don't understand this?" Then he would sigh dramatically and disappear into the basement (litter box land). He would return with a dried cat turd and drop THAT on your foot, then resume glaring. The message was clear, even to the idiot humans:

Fill the *$&#^% dog bowl or I'm eating the cat poop.

LOL!!!!  We had to put the cat box up where Allie couldn't get to it... We'd joke about doggie "Almond Roca's"!!!!

And during the Holidays when we have Almond Roca's in the house... it's a family tradition to call them "Cat Turds"... As it "hey pitch me a Cat Turd"

....Funny how dogs impact our lives in so many ways.

Thanks for the song.
