This is hilarious – I know you and Bryan do not want a dog – but I have to tell you, that after living with them my entire life – I cannot stand the thought of being without one! The training period is tedious, and you have to be firm about it – but the rewards are endless! Dogs are the most comforting beings, ever! You could look for dogs that need to be adopted – like Daisy – she was fully trained when we got her, and you know how sweet she is!! There must be some rescue dog shelters in your area! And, your new family member will be very welcome here any time!!!
Whenever we feel like getting a dog, we dogsit for a friend on vacation and think, “Nope, really don’t want a dog!” All our friends have sweet, well-behaved dogs… They’re just a lot of work compared to a cat.

Really, you should just send Daisy down as loaner. 😉 (I’m not the hold out, you know! Hope Bry reads this, too.)
