“Bahaha!” Those are the reasons, plus lack of room, and significant expenses–and last but not least, dog breath. I don’t have pet friends–I have enough trouble managing the human relationships.
‘Smudge’. Long story short – a dog we inherited was named ‘Pudge’. Her successor was named ‘Fudge’ by our kids when they were little. Hence ‘Smudge’. We’re thinking that this is now a family tradition to be kept at all costs. The next one HAS to be ‘Grudge’. 😀
Melody, what a hero your dog looks and sounds like! My little guy is sprawled out on the sofa beside me. He is not very intimidating… ( don’t tell him I said that). 😉

Dogs are fascinating. Each with their own personality, but all of them loyal and generous.
Rather people-like – minus the loyal and generous, in many cases… *wry smile*
Awww……so lovable.
And so full of drool! 😀
Nothing like a good dollop of dog drool to make one feel special.
How else will the laundry people make earn their pennies?? 🙂
Must be nice.
If you remove the drool, piles of poop unexpectedly underfoot, and the barking at 3 a.m. – yeah, really nice! 🙂

makes me miss my loyal friend 😦
😦 Special companions are a part of our hearts, always.
A wonderful companion to have!
Nice to meet her. What’s her name?

The photo combined with this piece brought a warm smile to my face.

Good! Our pets are champions in the smiles department… 🙂
She looks like a wonderful companion! Our dog passed away quite a few years ago . .. and we didn’t get another. But we miss her often times!
She’s a beautiful dog – undisciplined and young enough to have impulse control issues – but fun to be around!
