Why I Love My Dog

As I mentioned recently my parents acquired a lovely lovely doggie last week. 

There are many reasons why I love my dog, but the main reason is:  The pressure is now off for me to get married and produce grandchildren. 

My mother and father have a new child to play with and look after and dote on.  One that is far more affectionate that I ever was. 

So I am very pleased that not only do I have someone to keep me company when I am home alone, I do not have the stress of Ma asking me when I am going to give her a granddaughter.

Well done Gypsy.

Dog & Cats

I'm currently house sitting whilst my friend and her husband are on
vacation.  She has two dogs, a cat and two kittens.

Dog sitting is far more complicated than baby sitting.  I have baby sat an infant for a couple of hours and it was relatively easy to prepare her food, feed her, burp her and put her to sleep.  And if you just plonk her down she'll go to sleep.

Dogs, on the other hand, jump all over you, whinge if you don't play with them, drool on you a lot more than babies do and make just as much noise.

Kittens poo smells worse and they move like lightening, so you spend half your time chasing them around the house.

Give me baby sitting any day.
