Unpleasant dog experiences:
1. The Dog Fond of Cat Poop entering the room with a kitty litter moustache
2. Three (3) towels used this evening to clean mud off one hound after the evening’s fetch in the rain
3. Avoiding the impending last call for a doggie bathroom visit while listening to the rain pour down
4. Fostering three small kittens sick with upper respiratory infections and watching the Dog With Inappropriately High Prey Drive whine at the door to the basement where said kittens are residing
Thankfully these and many other traits are more than made up for by the fact that both dogs have remunerative careers outside the house.
Today is also an avoidance in allowing the dogs to relieve themselves outside. Too rainy!
