puppy

so.... I have put my own distaste to the side and agreed that Viking Boy can get a dog. 

read that again: DOG. 

A Mature, not-a-puppy, dog hopefully already crate trained and house trained and good with cats. You know... like the three legged pitt named thumbelina we found. 

but no. 

Now he wants to get a puppy. A will-chew-everything-and-make-us-have-to-buy-all-the-furniture puppy. A cry-all-night-so-you-get-no-sleep puppy. A puppy you have to train, with lots of accidents and frustration. A puppy that will probably go after the cats (I'm really going to have to get a better baby gate.... either to keep it out of my room or keep it in his). A super energetic ball of teeth thats not going to understand being left alone for 12 hours inside of a crate. A puppy thats going to need to be taken out more often than a dog because its bladder is smaller. With all the accidents. 

i did not sign up for a fucking puppy. 

This is going to test all of my goddamned patients. 

Yeah. The baby gate will go on his goddamn door. The puppy can go out of his room when hes out of his room. It will stay in his room when hes in his room. All the accidents and destruction will be contained in his room. 

This is his puppy. His responsibility. The cat litter will be removed from his room because I guarantee that the cats won't be going in there now, plus he'll need a place for the puppy pads. 

I'm gonna have to get real use to never sleeping with him for a while. 

A fucking puppy. 

And even if he does opt for a grown dog.
Is it going to be locked in a crate the entire time we are at work and sleeping? Thats literally only like 5 hours outside of the crate... (5pm to 10pm). Plus How is dalton doing to be able to walk it on his lunch break when he only has 30 minutes and works 20 minutes away?

This dog is going to be miserable. 

*** Full Disclosure: i don't dislike dogs and puppies. I dislike LIVING with dogs and puppies. I like OTHER PEOPLE'S canines.
