My cat would complain, except she is busy elsewhere right now!

My dog lives by 2 rules, mostly. The first one is that the only thing better than eating is being with his people. The second one is that the only thing better then being with his people is eating.

I have a belgian malinois, which Is what you see hanging from the soldier's arm. Somehow that doesn't fit with the picture of mine whining when the cat lays in the middle of her dog bed and won't let her back on.

My dog will sleep anywhere! We don't let him into the bedroom part of the house. Imagine my 95 year old MIL tripping over a sleeping dog as she goes to the bathroom at 2:00 am. Ug, not a pretty image.

I had 15 years of being symptom free and very stable - of which 8 were spent with a golden retriever who I had since he was a pup. I fully believe he kept my illness at bay. We walked 3x a day, went to dog parks and socialized, got patted in public, and generally lived life well together. He died this past May - and his passing is one reason behind my current slump.....

I'm so sorry. I think you should get a new dog. It won't be the same but it will still help. Hugs!

    Can you identify these rom-coms from just a screenshot from the middle of the films? This is a multiple choice quiz so even if you're not entirely sure you can always take a guess and at least have a 25% chance of getting it right anyway, so why not have a go?! https://www.buzzfeed.com/alysaurus688/rom-com-screenshot-trivia-quiz
