Man's Best Friend

I have to say, being a new dog owner is absolutely exhausting. I love my little guy to death, but he just has so many things about him that I need to remember.

1. If he can reach it, and it's small enough, he WILL eat it.
2. Get him fixed. ASAP. I'm going to lose all of my friends because I have a humper.
3. I'm glad he's potty trained. Big time. But I'm not so thrilled at him barking at me to take him outside at 8:00 am on a Sunday. My only day off, and my sleep day.
4. He's a baby. He acts like a baby. He thinks like a baby. He's a baby.
5. My cat hates me.
6. He doesn't like the $50.00 bed I bought him. He much prefers my bed.
7. Good luck getting his harness on.
8. Have fun running after him because he slipped out of his collar. (Refer back to 7.)
9. Oh what's that Bailey? That tree is yours? And that tree? And my Aunt Wendy?
10. Oh hey! You want your dog fixed? That'll be $150.00 please. Also an extra hundred because he needs his shots.
11. They make you clean up your dogs piss in petsmart. All 6 spots of it.
12. They also make you clean up the poop in the middle of isle 3.

So besides the few small setbacks of having a dog, I love my Bailey. He's adorable. He's charming. He's very sweet and loves to cuddle. He's also soft and doesn't shed at all, which I really love. He's just very expensive. And kind of hyper.

I'm getting his balls cut off this week. He needs to relax a bit.
