Tuesday 10: The Good & Bad of Adopting a New Dog

The Good:

  1. Three dog night*
  2. Improved exercise program for the cats (fleeing-intensive)
  3. Female influence = Slightly restored civility of the barbarian boy dogs
  4. Enjoying seeing her reaction to new experiences and people
  5. More unconditional love to go around

The Bad:

  1. Nonstop water drinking and subsequent dripping
  2. A barking soulmate for the already-too-barky puppy
  3. Too-barky puppy is jealous
  4. Sleeping in the guest room until she gets used to our bedtime routine
  5. Two words: Poo explosion

*Rich made me promise to use that.
