1. If I like it, it's mine.
2. If it's in my mouth, it's mine.
3. If I can take it from you, it's mine.
4. If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.
5. If it's mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
6. If I'm chewing something up, all the pieces are mine.
7. If it just looks like mine, it's mine.
8. If I saw it first, it's mine.
9. If you are playing with something and you put it down, it automatically becomes mine.
10. If it's broken, it's yours.

LOL~ Someone listed it...CUTE...I was googling it and found another cute one check this out...

The Foot Rule

There is a formula for figuring out how bed space is allocated. It is called the "Foot Rule." You start by determining the total number of feet (as in those at the end of the legs, not the kind made up by inches). Then you divide that total by the number of feet belonging to the person(s) or dog(s) in question. This is how it works: You and spouse share your bed with 1 dog. You and your spouse total 4 feet and the dog also has 4 feet. That is a total of 8 feet. The dog has 4 out of 8 feet or 50%, therefore, the dog gets 50% of the bed.

You could work this in reverse as well. You have 2 out of 8 feet or 25% and so does your spouse, so each of you gets 25% and the dog gets 50%.

Now I have 5 dogs. At 4 feet per dog, that is 20 feet. Add to that my 2 feet and we have a total of 22 feet in the bed. I have 2 out of 22 feet which is 1/11th or 9.1% of the bed. The dogs, since they share a total of 20 of 22 feet, get 10/11ths or 90.9% of the bed. Simple isn't it?!

Once I figured out my percent of the bed space, the next step was to work out the exact area that I am entitled to. My bed is a California King which is approximately 6 ft x 7 ft.

Here is the math:
6 ft x 7 ft = 42 square feet
42 square feet = 6048 square inches
9.1% of 6048 = 550 square inches
550 square inches = 45.8 total inches
45.8 inches = 3.8 total feet

In order to determine the exact size of my bed space, I needed to know the percentage of length to width - this comes out to 54% long to 46% wide.

When I apply these percentages to my spot:
550 square inches x 54% = 297 square inches
550 square inches x 46% = 253 square inches
297 square inches = 24.7 inches
253 square inches = 21.1 inches
24.7 inches = 2.1 feet
21.1 inches = 1.8 feet

Now that the math is all done, the figures show that the dimensions of my part of the bed are 2.1 feet by 1.8 feet or in other words:

i knew i could count on you guys to help me with this,

i was trying to explain something to my son about this, austin had been playing around with something the "dog drug in" and i was trying to explain that if petey had it first it was his, and he said no, it wasnt, he had it at the moment making it his, NOT. it was still peteys in his mind, he drug it in, it was his even if he wasnt playing with it.

so i tried last night to find the rules and didnt have any luck, but now, i've got the rules to post for my son. he'll love them.

and i like the feet math problem, good thing petey has his own room

LOL~ How old is your son? For he maybe of the age where they also feel the same way as Petey does...If that the case...Have fun with that...

As for the feet math...I need to sit Tank down and explain it to him...It's not unusual that I'll find my youngest curled into a small ball taking a corner of his bed...or giving up that position...Taking the floor over trying to find room on his bed with Tank laying in the middle with his feet all up in the air...
