[NAGDU] if you had a magic wand

Mon Jun 26 11:22:29 UTC 2017

Well let's see, all of the sentiments expressed in the posts have been 
well-thought-out and accurate. Let's see, I wish dealing with people 
could be easier, I don't mean so much the people who love dogs  or who 
act in a less then helpful manner by distracting or whatever, I'll live 
with that...as those who are hostile like access issues for cabs, I want 
that to go away, it can be stressful and I'm not actually an 
argumentative person but I've learned to hold my own. Or times when you 
say are going in to a restaurant and all of the sudden it's "no dog. no 
dog". Then the only other thing really is that our dogs could live 
longer, I fall in love with my puppies and it's very sad for me when 
they get older and something happens. Yes, I know it's inevitable  and 
we are adults and have to deal with it, but it's terrible.

And number three, and this is a bit disgusting so don't read if you have 
a weak stomach: I wish our dogs were never tempted to eat their own 
waste product or another dog's waste product, or kitty litter. I had a 
dog who was very  prone to do that,ugh.

Anyway, you take care all and enjoy your pups they're precious and 
wonderful creatures.
