Here's a notice you can post at your front door so visitors know their place:
 

NOTICE

TO PEOPLE VISITING MY HOME:

The dog lives here...YOU DON’T!

If you don't want dog hair on your clothes,

stay off the furniture.

Yes, he has some disgusting habits.  So

do I, and so do you!  What's your point?

OF COURSE he smells like a dog.

I like him a lot better than I like most

people.

To you, he’s just a dog. To me, he is an

adopted child who is short, hairy, walks

on all fours, doesn’t speak clearly, and tolerates eating on the floor.

And by the way…Its his nature to sniff your crotch.  Please feel free to sniff his!
