Concur. Dogs are animals and are meant to be loved and enjoyed not pampered.
Most dogs want and need a job. If you can figure out what it wants to do and let them do it, everyone is happier. Unfortunately, my dog is an exceptional pointer (nose pointing at desired object, tail straight out, and paw cureled up), but is very gun shy. And it refuses to fetch, so the dog and I are out of luck.
Hilarious.
It ain’t the dog they’re arguing about. They’re just too chickenshit to actually argue about what’s really on their mind. So you get a few free shots in using the dog as an excuse.

Why Some Men Have a Dog And No Wife:
1. The later you are, the more excited your dogs are to see you.
2. Dogs don’t notice if you call them by another dog’s name.
3. Dogs like it if you leave a lot of things on the floor.
4. A dog’s parents never visit.
5. Dogs agree that you have to raise your voice to get your point across.
6. Dogs find you amusing when you’re drunk..
7. Dogs like to go hunting and fishing.
8. A dog will not wake you up at night to ask, “If I died, would you get another dog?”
9. If a dog has babies, you can put an ad in the paper and give them away.
10. A dog will let you put a studded collar on it without calling you a pervert.
11. If a dog smells another dog on you, they don’t get mad. They just think it’s interesting.
And last, but not least:
12. If a dog leaves, it won’t take half of your stuff.
The only argument we have is not if we are going to get another dog but when.
‘’Owning a dog is not dissimilar to having a baby.
Never had a problem getting someone to watch my babies. No one will watch my dogs, even for pay. And I won’t watch theirs either. Dogs are a whole lot more trouble to find a sitter for.
The only argument we have is when are we are going to get another dog.
My dog just told me this article is a bunch of chit. Then she went back in the bedroom and jumped back up on the bed and resumed watching BOR.
I don't walk my cat. I open the door, and he walks out. Then a few hours later, I open the door and he walks back in.
A good cat is the ultimate low maintenance companion. (But dogs are nice too if you have the time for them.)
Dogs are a whole lot more trouble to find a sitter for.
Try an ad or word of mouth at a senior center. We’ve found lots of seniors love dogs but don’t want or can’t have one full time for a host of reasons. A part time dog entering their lives perks them up and gives them something to do and be responsible for.
Great idea. My kids have kids and dogs of their own and adding my two dogs is just over the top for them, even if we are only going to be away for one day. We don’t go much, but I have a grandson approaching driving age and I can’t wait for a new dog sitter to enter the scene! (without his parents having to drive him over.)
my dog has diffused that ‘bomb’ many times.
I guess having six dogs TheMom and I should average 18 “rows” a week.
I can think of another VERY strong proof that dogs are better than a wife:
If you lock your dog and your wife in the trunk of the car for an hour, which one will be happy to see you?
Game, Set, and Match!
Well done!
