I think my favourtie part is ...
"Regardless, your teen will bring home many mongrels. Consider this a part of natural selection, and encourage common sense. Although you may be tempted, spaying or neutering your teen is not an option."

Heh Heh. I like:

I am often asked whether it is a good idea to de-worm your teenagers at regular intervals. The answer is no. As long as your teen is eating standard teen rations, he/she will not have parasites. Even parasites can only stand so much fast food.

Because I am the mother of one 15-year-old teen who is currently giving me more trouble than you all can imagine, I can only say ...

WHERE WAS THIS ADVICE WHEN I NEEDED IT??!!??

Encourage him/her to identify a mate that is housebroken. A nice shiny coat is not always an indication of good health.

So lay off the bishies, huh?

If your teen has a dry nose, consider it a good thing. However, a dry mouth, red eyes and a sudden appetite for Doritos is cause for concern.

Hmmm . . . in my experience, the dry mouth, red eyes, and sudden appetite has always manifested itself at school. Sometimes it was accompanied by incesant giggling. Enough to kind of scare a lil goody-two-shoes nerd-girl like me.

I guess my Junior High was just in a bad neighborhood.

What is a shiny coat?

It's like what you have after the admins. have given you a good spit-polishing. Or when you buy a new dress.

I like the part about advising the parent to consider spaying or neutering for him or herself when the urge to "replace the teen with another litter" becomes to great

My problem? I didn't have the first litter until it was time to be spayed...

... or maybe that's a good thing, because by the time they're both teens, I'll be too damn tired to even ponder having another litter!

(There ARE days when I envy the woman in the next office who is the same age as I am, and whose *grandchildren* are the ages of my *children*. SHE gets to play with the pups and send them home to their own kennels at night!!)

Whoops. Dangit. didn't mean to quote myself. Blah.
