Haha, you are speaking to me as always Brittney. I’ve been planning to get a dog for ages, and thought this might be the year. And then realized that I do not have the time/energy to be a good dog mom.
And so spent time trying to teach one of our cats to fetch and decided that he’s now giving me much of the things that I wanted in a dog anyways, so yay! (and he doesn’t need walks, or expensive dog sitters and he doesn’t chew my shoes (most of the time))
