I haven't slept 8 hours more than 3 or 4 times since I have dogs. I need more than the 6 or 7 I get of sleep because of them, my mental and physical health suffers for this.

We can't go on vacation, or even have a night out somewhere else, without planning and paying for them to be hosted somewhere.

I love my dogs, but I'm looking forward with both dread and hope for the days they will no longer be around.

A dog that could be turned off would be much better in this regard.
