Things My Dogs Are Not Good For

April 25, 2013 | Filed under: Stories

029I love my dogs very much, and they are good for many things- like cuddles when I don’t feel well, kisses when I’m down, laughter pretty much anytime they’re awake, and always unconditional love. However, there are somethings my dogs are not good at, and one thing in particular that really came to light this last week.

My dogs are not good study partners.

053Not only can they not help me study, they often actively work against it. Whether it’s the decision to scuffle right next to me, bark at anything that moves, or Junebug’s favorite, falling asleep with her head on my laptop, my dogs not only aren’t good for my studying, they are actively bad for it.

027Luckily, I have passed my professional certification exam and no longer need to study. That means that starting tomorrow, I get to enjoy it when they decide to sleep on my mousing hand instead of being frustrated.

059Studying is only temporary. Puppy love is forever.

    To dogs if you can't learn it in a few minutes, it isn't worth learning. Congratulations on passing your certification exam.

    I think my dog would be a good study partner. She's a bit of a lounger. My cats in the past on the other hand were always horrible study partners!

    My dog Mo is a terrible blogger. She's always pulling my power cord from the computer and getting tangled in it!
