Say Yes

Yes!


and....

Dawgs are the greatest of drinking partners;

They don’t tell stupid stories.
They don’t get louder.
They don’t sing...unless you do.
They’re not offended by the term ‘bitch’.

They’re not even offended by your farts.
They enjoy them, taking in as much as possible with their nostrils,
then looking into your eyes with an expression of sincere admiration that says ‘good one’,
patiently waiting for the possibility of more.

They hang around when you pass out...especially if they are already passed out.
The snoring, twitching and air running is acceptable (they’re really not bothered by whatever you do).

They have sense enough to take it outside when they feel the urge to throw up....or pee.
(I recommend drinking on the back deck for the lesser intellectual pups...or people).

But, if you happen to be the one to inadvertently blow chips, say, on the floor or deck,
they don’t go ‘ewwwww!’, but have been known to diligently clean things up....you don’t even have to ask.


No training required.

and they won't out drink you.....usually

But if they do

walking sideways over to the water bowl is hilarious!

Yes, a thousand times over! We made a wooden-frame bed with a rope bottom so it was off the floor. I sewed a comfy mattress for it. Our first dog slept in it till the end of his days. The second dog didn't take to it, so he slept on a thick blanket. The comfy dog beds that are popular nowadays weren't in vogue back then. Both dogs would get on the bed (at our invitation), but always got down to go to their sleeping spots.
 
All, but ... I played fetch with her for half an hour, told her to go pee & poo before we came back inside, and during the brief time it took to wash her fetch toy and my hands, she peed & pood on the carpet again. So, I do want this to change!
 
All of the above, except she doesn't sleep in my bed, and is not allowed upstairs. Need to have one hair free zone to save my sanity. She's perfectly happy in her own bed on the main floor in her kennel, which also solved the pooping and peeing in the house issue. It's like her little burrow, and she goes in and out on her own all during the day. My son's little mini Dachshund has slept with us for years when he's here, or were down there.

Yeah, makes complete sense. I think we are going to have to do the same thing. Allergy issues.
