Dogs are wonderful. Granted that I haven't had one since the family dogs we had when I was growing up, but I've been an apartment-dweller for most of my adult life and I lack the necessary dickishness to coop a dog up in an apartment all day.
dog owners perplex me. don't understand the circle jerk about dogs.
I am very very very close to my dog. I do not think this is necessarily true of all people who are super-close to their dogs, but in my case I have a lot of difficulty associating comfortably with people. I think these things are probably related.
greg,
site must be broken.
the link to that LC thread is just a bunch of people smugly disparaging the lowly peasants from the tops of their ivory towers!
