The Eyes Have It-Dukes Dilemma

If I were you, I wouldn’t walk there Not there, behind the couch Oh brother, it’s too late isn’t it? Is your sock wet? I really had to go! And the door was locked and you were taking a nap and well… Don’t be mad, Look into my eyes - you KNOW I’m sorry Yes, that’s right, look deeply into my big brown eyes And while I have your attention, Please, please, oh please Don’t look at the socks you wore yesterday I was so nervous while you were out Yes, that’s it, really, really nervous! And they were here and you weren’t and… Keep looking – look into my eyes My very sad brown eyes And one more thing, besides I love, love, love you You didn’t really mean it about withholding my treats, did you? You know, because of the lawn, I had to save a bone for winter, right! Great! Now that we’ve cleared that up, I’m gonna let you go, my eyes are tired and I need a nap.

So sweet and made me laugh at the reality of how a dog or cat might think. They really do hate being scolded. : )
