Mum and dad has been commenting that I must be the laziest dog in the entire world. I'm not sure whether I should believe them or not but a few incidents seems to have convince them that if I considered myself as the 2nd laziest dog, no other canine will consider themselves as the 1st. Here's a few of the examples.

1. When I come in from the backyard and want to go to bed, I will simply flop onto the floor with my belly facing up, hoping that either mum or dad (whoever is the one who lets me in) will carry me all the way to bed (from the backdoor to the bed room is like a 2m walk. Really far, right?).

2. When I'm let out into the backyard to go toilet, I immediately go to bed in the laundry (which is part of the backyard) and try to conserve all my energy and focus it on sleeping.

3. When mum or dad invites me into the house (as tempting as it may be), I will be so lazy to take a step that I will rather sleep outside in the cold.

4. When mum tries to tempt me into the house (it usually works the best), I will slide off my bed, rest on the ground a couple of times before finally reaching the back door. Mind you, if I really wanted to, it will have taken me less than 10 steps to get into the house.

5. In bed all snuggly and cosy with mum and dad, if I really want a drink, I will go up to them (usually dad though because he's better in reading my signals) and pant heavily. If he's asleep already and ignores my hint, I will just fall asleep beside him thirsty. In another words, I will rather die of thirst than to walk to the water bowl.

6. If mum brings me out to pee, as soon as I finish, I will flop on the ground irregardless of where I am.

Although I do have a few lazy points, I don't think I warrant the title of being the laziest dog in the world. What do you guys think?
