I would just like to say...

...that one of the ways a dog is better than a kid is:

when you are trying to serve him up some yogurt to keep his immune system working despite major doses of antibiotics, if you inadvertently drop the yogurt on the floor rather than in his dish, he is not only *eager* to clean up your mistake, but he has eaten his yogurt when he is done.

Damned convenient, dogs are, aren't they?
And they never turn to you at dinnertime and say, "I hate leftovers!"

Convenient indeed.

Once upon a time, many moons ago, my mom was in the back yard, and a neighbor was out in her back yard, crying.

My mom asked her what was the matter, and she said that the baby had just thrown his peas all over the kitchen (again) and she couldn't bear the idea of cleaning them up.

My mom told her "No problem! We'll just send my dog in....."

Not only no "I hate leftovers," but "YAY! Dog chow AGAIN!!!!"
