[Nyagdu] let's all take a deep breath

[JULIE PHILLIPSON]

oh boy well I agree with both Tracy and Cheryl but frankly I don't know why 
Cheryl even brought it up now, I mean its after the fact now, and did 
something happen last weekend that I don't know about?  I think we all know 
our dogs better than anyone else and there are times when I think a rule can 
be a little flexible.  I for one know that I can not leave Brewster, the big 
baby any where alone for more than just a few minutes unless of course the 
whole hotel wants to be awakened!  I know to that my other previous dogs I 
could leave alone for a while without a problem.  I guess we each need to be 
responsible for our own dog and if such damage occurs then suffer the 
consequences.  I will say though that if someone else's dog infringes on how 
I want to handle my dog I would be very very unhappy with that person.  If 
your dog is a new dog or you are not sure how he/she will react then it 
would be prudent to be on the safe side and never leave your dog alone.
