Dogs. They may keep quiet and act stupid, but they've got a sneaky plan.
  • Ah yesssss

    Our dogs have their own beds, toy baskets, door, food cupboard, and medicine basket. I have forgiven the shisty one for chewing on an heirloom quilt and ruining a carpet that will cost about $1100 to replace. I have forgiven the German Shedder for destroying a Coach Purse and forgiven the Shist when she chewed the strap off my Ameribag.

    When the humans are ill, we suck it up and suffer. When the dogs are ill we go to the closest AAHA certified vet we can find with all due haste.

    I bathe the dogs in Mane and Tail bought especially for them and kept under the sink and used only on the canines of our household. Me? I use generic body soap and White Rain shampoo.

    The dogs eat pre-measured, healthy dog food, perfectly balanced for their health. Me? I eat whatever's cheap that I can cook in a crockpot.

    The dogs don't work, don't have responsibilities, don't even have to put up their own damn toys before I vacuum all of their fur off the floor and the furniture.

    Breathed might be onto something.
