Jackson wants a puppy so bad.  He’s an only child and wants a friend and companion.  I get it.

We had a dog for thirteen years and was the coolest dog ever.  Bogey died about five years ago and we still miss him.  Do I miss all that goes along with dog ownership?  Hmmmm.  I’ll get back to you on that one.

Sigh.  Dogs are a HUGE responsibility.  I know this and it scares me.  I remember it like it was yesterday… the training, the walks, the barking, the poop….  And the vet bills.  We used to call Bogey the bionic dog, yo.  I also remember the unconditional love and affection.  You can’t beat it and in the end, that’s what counts right?

See???

Come on now.  Tell me this wouldn’t give  you puppy fever too.
