Fuck, I wish our current dog was more like that.
But she's the wife's dog, really; and she's a lazy bitch who just doesn't listen or obey.
Well, that dog didn't listen or obey either, but I didn't know how to train it and my parents didn't care to.
Why can't you have another dog? Shouldn't you have one of your own? Unless you're not home much of course.
I'm not home that much, it is true. And when I am here, one of the cats is very loyal to me, so at least I have her. I swear, I'd just stay on the boat and drink myself to death if it weren't for this cat sometimes.
Don't tell anyone, though, that makes me sound like a crazy person.
Also, most of the times everything is much better here, but tonight I am just disgusted with both the missus and my mother in law; they're being obnoxious for some reason. I AM ALLOWED TO BE EMO!! IT'S THE WEEKEND or something. I guess I just need a honky tonk song, a cold cold beer, a hardwood floor, and a smokey atmosphere. Or something.
I prefer cats to dogs any day of the week when it comes to companionship.
Dogs to cats when it comes to usefulness. Dogs are awesome for guarding and working. Cats, not so much. My dogs keep our critters safe and I know if anyone who doesn't belong comes into the house there's going to be quite the alarm to allow me time to prepare. Before we got our dogs I had a very hard time sleeping at night because I would wake over every sound, hold my breath to assess the noise, relax when I figured it out, then hope I would be able to go back to sleep after the thudding of my heart quit.
Sorry your wife and MIL are torturing you. I don't see anything wrong with heading out to the boat for beers if they're acting like that. Gotta hold them accountable ya know.
