September 23. National Dogs in Politics Day. I kid you not. It’s about time. I’ve been saying for MONTHS that I need to
run for political office. I just need to
decide which one…
In the US, there is the Presidential
election. It is in the news EVERY SINGLE
day. And the WORST part – the election
isn’t even until NEXT November. Yes.
November 2016!!!!!!!! So these things
that they call debates – where a bunch of adult humans stand up and argue with
each other like a bunch of 3 year old humans who have been told that the one
who shouts the loudest will get the last cookie – will CONTINUE to go on for
MONTHS. It’s hard to believe it is real.
Oh and the same thing is going on in Canada
too. The election is for the Prime
Minister. The only difference with this
circus is that it will be OVER on October 19, 2015.
I guess no matter what office I am planning
to run for, I need a party. How about Canines Around the World. CAW. Nah – sounds like a bunch of crows…Canine
Reformist Autonomy Party? CRAP. Nah –
that’s not very nice sounding. The Canine Reform Party? CARP. Nah – sounds fishy to me. Dogs Really Are Best. DRAB.
That doesn’t work either. Canine
Liberty Independence Party. CLIP. Hmmmmm…
I’m not loving it – since it does have grooming connotations, but it
does have a catchy ring. I’ll have to
keep working on it.
And my campaign promises. Every candidate has to promise things – most
of which they never actually deliver.
Let’s see….
I will:
·
Help to shut down puppy mills
·
Support research for canine
health problems
·
Focus on the environment by
willingly shredding all papers for easier recycling
·
Ensure that all dogs can obtain
veterinary care through affordable insurance
·
Increase taxes to grooming
supply companies
·
Reduce taxes to companies that
produce dog food, dog treats, and dog toys
I think that’s a great start. Want to join my party? Free treats for joining…
Oh - and Happy First Official Day of Fall!!! Let the colors begin!
