5.Don’t let your pet eat all gifts that are presented!

The houseguest from hell, I brought homemade dog biscuits for my relative’s Labs, which they duly ate … and we were all up all night as dogs struggled with fulminating diarrhea.

6.If you animal is excitable, soothe him or her, or remove them if necessary, giving them a special place in house where they can have quiet time.

7.Protect your animal from young children.

They can poke eyes, pull ears, plop down on stomachs, beat their backs with toys, and generally provoke gentlest of dogs.

8.Guard against escapes!

Weejums who lived with us for a while, was always looking for his chance to escape, and holidays were most exciting time of year for little rascal. Oh opportunities! If you have such a knave in your house, make sure they have their tags, and explain to kids and to houseguests, to please take care about front door.

9. Talk to your houseguests, who are more under your “control,” and keep your eye out for your other guests.

Or your pet companion may end up with an injured tail and bad memories like Muff Tuff, who was sleeping near rocking chair; or a temporarily injured paw like Stan-the-Man, who got stepped on by someone wearing bifocals. 10.Talk to your animal companion – with soothing tones when needed, but also clear commands, so they know rules still apply.

Use visual “communication” as well, as your animal companion is deeply attuned to you.

BOTTOM LINE: You’re busier and preoccupied, things change, it’s a good time to stop and think, for safety of your animal companion. They’re counting on you!

The peck before bed. You know you aren't getting laid when you get that little peck before she rolls over in her flannel night gown. It doesn't have to be such a little innocent kiss. Instead, look into her eyes when she gives you that little peck. Run your fingers through her hair and tell her that you love her. This will give her sweet dreams all night long.

Just like peck before bed, turn that peck before you leave for work into something special. Tell her that you will be thinking about her all day long while at work. Look her in eyes and smile when you say it. This will keep her waiting for when you get home. You can also use kisses to see where she is at sexually. If you are turned on but you are not sure if she is, kiss her and find out. Give her a long slow kiss, if she comes back wanting more, than you know you are going to score in sack. If on other hand after you are done she is talking about he bills you owe that month, you aren't getting laid tonight.

You may not know it, but a kiss holds a lot of power to a woman. With right kiss you can make her go from undecided to a horny vixen when it comes to sex. If you aren't sure that you will get laid, a kiss is a good way to test waters. A kiss can also be a way to show affection. If you just want to show that you love her and are thinking about her, a great way to show it is a little peck. This will make her feel warm and fuzzy inside and know that you care.

Kissing shows interest. It maybe sexual or just love, but it does it all same. Your woman will respond to this same way time and time again. She will be happy to feel your lips on hers. Don't forget, you can never get too many kisses in your lifetime.
