CAN'T I DO ANYTHING RIGHT

Seems I can't do anything right these days. I'm getting scolded by both mom and dad lately. Take this morning for example. I got into the cats litter box again. Dad was so mad. He yelled and slapped my butt and wouldn't let me out of the room. He lectured me. When mom found out what I did, she lectured me too. But mom pets me while she lectures.
I got yelled at for chasing the cats again. Why can't I chase the cats? All they do is run and jump onto something I can't reach. I won't hurt them. Besides, it keeps them on their toes. And I swear they know it's only a game we're playing.
Yes, I bark. I'm a dog. I'm only doing what dogs naturally do. I'm protecting my humans and my siblings and my property. How do I know that the person driving by our home isn't a card carrying NRA member ready to take aim. The UPS and FEDEX guys give us fair warning with their noisy vehicles. How do I know the packages they leave aren't some sort of bomb? It happens all the time on TV. Maybe those weird people driving around in golf carts want to harm us. Can we ever be sure we are completely safe? I'm just doing my job.
Dad really yelled at me the other night. I barked at a possible intruder. Dad got up to investigate, and he found the mess I made on the porch. There were torn up kleenix and napkins all over the floor. Dad was really mad, but couldn't yell too loud because mom was sleeping. I sorta feel bad for what I did, but give a dog a break...I have so much fun tearing up paper products. I should be praised for not tearing up papers on the desks or coffee table, I also leave books alone.
I admit, I am a repeat offender of all of the above. I'm just doing my job when I bark. I enjoy playing chase with the cats. I can't resist Kleenix and napkins. I'm well past the three strikes law. Are mom and dad going to send me back to the SPCA? I doubt it. They haven't yet. the cycle will continue. Mom and dad have to remember I am just a dog doing my job.
