If you’re thinking about getting a dog, think long and hard. Your life will never be the same again.
oh. great. the laundry basket.
hey. awesome. our chair.
You have to feed them EVERY day. They also need exercise and attention. They need shots and regular check-ups and vaccinations. When you go on vacation you have to pay someone to watch them. They are a bit on the stinky side, slobbery, shed like crazy and chew on things they shouldn’t chew on. You have to pick up their poo and they bark a lot. They turn their nose up at the good food you buy them for some unknown reason. They pee on things you don’t want them pee on. They turn their heads from the water bowl before they are finished drinking allowing the water in their mouth to flow out of their mouth and all over the kitchen. They leave slimy nose prints on windows and dirty foot prints on the floor.
But it’s worth it. It is totally worth every poo you pick up, every cent spent at the vet, every piece of dog hair you pull out of your food. It is worth it.

Hoss would like to clarify that the Laundry Basket and The Chair happened when he was a wee lad. Your post makes it sound/look as though it was yesterday or the day before. Mr. Hoss is currently under my desk consoling himself with ill-gotten twinkies and apple cider. In other words, umbrage was taken! For your sake, I hope the dozen or so twinkies don’t make an appearance on your oh-so-chi-chi rug tonight. That would be a crying shame. Really.
I mean, this dog says “I love you” in a really meaningful way. “Awww aww ooooh” – Better than any darn laundry basket any darn day!
Actually, it was Hoss with the laundry basket and Pepper with the former coolest chair in the world. And, yes it was a few years ago. They have both thankfully outgrown the chewing on everything and are great dogs. Now if only they would outgrow the stinking and shedding…
See here, Gregory Charles! No more casting aspersions on the two sweetest Grandpuppies in the world!!! That’s an order! Yer Madre
Jeez! I said it IS worth it. Everyone has their moments…
