Many people would think my house is a mess because we have furry friends. If my significant other and I could buy a house, we’d adopt another dog, and maybe another if I could afford to. But what I do hoard is BOOKS! I have bookshelves on every walls in the house.

In reply to Trisha Walsh. Well it's your bed. You can do what you like with it!

In reply to Trisha Walsh. Oops, I meant keep the dog clean and wash the bedclothes.

Alas, I never make my bed. It always looks unkempt, but I wash the bedclothes regularly. Why? Because it’s fruitless when the dog is still on the bed, pushing the sheets and/or blanket, to make a nest, or else it’s a bit cold and he wants to get under the bedclothes.

I mentioned this on Quora, and one person was disgusted that I’d sleep with my dog, even though I wash him dog). But a cohort of dog-lovers who showed pictures of their dogs. One lady had two dogs lying on the bed…(were they Doberman or Great Danes! I don’t remember.) Needless to say, the bed was very big!

Unlike things, pets are loving and loyal and they won’t abandon us. That’s why I try to give the same love. Because I live in a rental house, I can only have one dog at a time but he is the King!
In fact, one of then would growl at me when he wanted my attention. It’s lucky that my partner loves dogs as much as me, but he said I was unwise to let him “get me over a barrel”, as he said.

I was lucky that he had a lot of empathy!
