Why Dogs are better!
Posted by calvy in Funny bones! on July 2, 2010
My dogmail is usually flooded with forward messages from my furry friends. Yesterday while I was checking my inbox, amidst the milieu of mails with subjects like “Crash course on how to threaten a cat”, “What annoys a cat the most” etcetera, there was a mail from Gucci(the one who keeps Runa as his roomy) It read about how dogs are better than Women.
Patience, my male chauvinist friends, since dogs don’t have a biased gene, the second part of the mail obviously explores the issue as to how dogs are better than Men. (Thanks for the cheers ladies) 
PART 1: HOW DOGS ARE BETTER THAN WOMEN
Dogs don’t cry.
Dogs love it when your friends come over.
Dogs don’t care if you use their shampoo.
Dogs think you sing great.
A dog’s time in the bathroom is confined to a quick drink.
Dogs don’t expect you to call when you are running late.
The later you are, the more excited dogs are to see you.
Dogs will forgive you for playing with other dogs.
Dogs don’t notice if you call them by another dog’s name.
Dogs are excited by rough play.
Dogs understand that farts are funny.
If a dog is gorgeous, other dogs don’t hate it.

Dogs like it when you leave lots of things on the floor.
A dog’s disposition stays the same all month long.
Dogs never need to examine the relationship.
A dog’s parents never visit.
Dogs love long car trips.
Dogs understand that instincts are better than asking for directions.
Dogs understand that all animals smaller than dogs were made to be hunted.
Dogs like beer.
Dogs don’t hate their bodies.
No dog ever put on 100 pounds after reaching adulthood.

Dogs agree that you have to raise your voice to get your point across.
Hang on dear ladies, now comes your favorite part
PART 2: HOW DOGS ARE BETTER THAN MEN
Dogs don’t come in drunk and expect loving.
Dogs don’t notice when you’ve had a bad hair day.
Dogs understand when you cry.
Dogs don’t ogle the girls at the beach.
Dogs like to cuddle as long as you do.
Dogs don’t bring old army buddies home on the spur of the moment.
Dogs never promise “not to do it again”–whatever IT is.
Dogs love you more than they love anybody else.
Dogs like YOUR friends too.
Dogs never act ashamed to be seen with you in public.
Dogs don’t spend Sunday afternoon’s watching football/cricket–unless you do. [By the way when is Germany Argentina World cup clash? ]
Dogs never get bored with you and look for someone younger and more exciting.
Dogs don’t bury themselves in a newspaper at breakfast.
Dogs don’t criticize the way you keep house.
Dogs love you unconditionally.
Dogs never correct your grammar.
Dogs don’t care how long you talk on the telephone.
You never have to wonder if your dog really loves you.
Dogs don’t demand to control the TV remote.
Dogs never make negative comments on your figure.
Dogs never bitch about your cooking.
Dogs never have to take clients to topless bars.
Dogs never demand sex because it’s “your duty.”
You’re always Number One with your dog. (Unlike Tiger Woods)
Now, with the power vested in me by the Canine central, I hereby read my dictum, from Part 1 and 2 we have come to the conclusion that
Dogs > women… (A)
& dogs are better than men… (B)
From equations A and B, we have
Dogs> men + women
Dogs > human beings
Q.E.D.
Who said dogs don’t know mathematics? 
PS Read it somewhere, Men are like dogs. They keep coming back…….. Women are like cats. Yell at a cat once…they’re gone.
..TV Commercials & dogs!

For an academically challenged canine like me, the cloistered life of books isn’t befitted. The other day, Calvy was too busy to play frisbee with me, browsing through his MBA course ware with eyes darted at the page at one instant and on the window at the other; waywardly his retina navigated behind his spectacles…so much for enacting intelligence:)
Dog grins are hard to enshroud, you’d know if you were a dog. Anyway, when he caught me mocking him, he nuzzled in a couch and put off his ‘intelligent glasses’ on the table. With an air of wizardly wand movement he asked me,”Well, what do you think of advertisements? “
“Ahem! Well…It’s promotion of some product or service”, I said.
“…and usually paid for”, he added.
Now that his ego was satisfied, he was back to his notes and devoid of his playtime, the professor in me delved in the pensive cocoon and recollected some of the most cherished commercials I had ever been subjected to. Naturally,all of them had one thing in common…dogs:)
So here’s presenting the succeeding entry in the Dogged reviews…the TV Commercials!
Well, there is no dearth of talent and wits when it comes to copywriters having dogs in their artwork, yet for the sake of succinctness in the post, I’ve taken the liberty of choosing four. However in the coming posts I’d again reiterate on the idea.
So, here’s presenting the TVC with pups in a starring role…
First we have the amazing campaign by dog food makers Pedigree wherein they embark on a pledge to help a shelter dog get adopted each time their product is bought and they sign off with ‘Dogs Rule’ . Though all the commercials under this campaign were high on emotion yet here are the dog’s pick…
…they say that hope and a little prayer never get unanswered so was true for Echo,here he gets adopted:)
Closer home, in India, the suiting majors Raymonds showed with their commercial that the complete man sports a softer side too.
The Mobile service providers Hutch(now known as Vodafone) build their brand in India riding on the back of a pug. The amazingly cute and unforgettable campaign had many of the master pieces yet the following commercial and the accompanying soundtrack is awesome!
Coming to terms with my momentary lewd conscience, I can’t help but leave you with something to feel light about after the emotional drive.
What? The aforementioned four TVC are already done with, well…I lied…here’s the fourth:)
Season’s greetings and a happy new year fellas:)
…till we meet again,here’s yoo-hoo from the Dogville!
Korean carnage…:(
Hello humans!
The plight of dog folk in Korea is not a new newsbyte and yet no significant measures have been made to take care of the same. Time and again hue and cry have been raised by the pet lovers and advocates of animal rights over the deplorable condition of animals in states of Korea and China. The activists are gravely concerned over the repeated ill-treatment of animals in Korea and so am I.
It’s an appeal to my human friends that since ‘International Day of Action for Dogs and Cats in Korea’ is on July 14, 2009,kindly take this oath to care for animal rights, join ‘In Defense of Animals’ …I aren’t asking you to turn vegetarian overnight but would it hurt if you raise your voice atleast once when you see someone smacking a street dog in the shed or would it be a herculean effort if you would kindly put some water for a thirsty canine in a midsummer noon?
In Defense of Animals (IDA) will again be co-sponsoring this worldwide event to stop the terrible suffering these animals endure. IDA is working with the South Korean animal protection organizations Coexistence for Animal Rights on Earth (CARE) and Korean Animal Rights Advocates (KARA) to end the brutal slaughter of dogs and cats for human consumption. Forced to live in tiny, filthy cages and killed in unimaginably cruel ways, they deserve a voice. I understand that’s its not possible for everyone of us to be there at US Embassy for the event but wherever you are please take out a brief moment from your strict schedules and think for the canines & cats suffering in Korea.
May peace (…& sanity) prevail!
