The two newest additions to the Morshedi family became the two latest departures from the Morshedi family today. Nearing the end of our one week trial with the 2 dogs, it was becoming increasingly clear that: A) one of these two dogs is insane, and B) we should not be responsible for other life forms.
So we decided to return Bits and Winky to the humane society today, where we are sure that they will be quickly adopted by someone else since they're so cute. We were a tiny bit sad at first, but it took us all of dinner to completely get over it. Yes, a nice, quiet, calm dinner...without having to worry if something is pooping on my carpet.
We've learned a few good lessons from this past week. In no particular order...
1. chihuahuas are cute
2. 50% of chihuahuas are crazy
3. dog farts can be killer
4. we are not responsible enough to take care of living creatures
5. #4 does not include plants
6. we are good at entertaining small living things for short periods of time, including dogs, cats, babies, etc.
7. if you want us to watch your dog/cat/baby we would be glad to, for up to one week, at which time we will return it to you in good condition

You are wise ones! Enjoy your petless, childless years. Your taking-care-of-living-things years will be all the more welcome.
Love, Mom/Mil
I think you guys made a wise decision. You are too young and way too busy now to be responsible for another living thing. For now, just stick to plants and stuffed animals.
(p.s. I thought those dogs looked like something from outer space anyway.)
Love, Dad/Ali
... As for the lessons learned, what about larger life forms, say, like parents and their friends?
Just wondering!

A dog is a great companion and can make any bad day better when they welcome you home. But, they are a lot of work and a lot of responsibility. You'll know when you're ready and you'll know when you find the right one. Your dad was never very crazy about dogs but Daisy is a true joy for both of us.
Love ya,

quitters.

Well you tried, it is especially hard to adopt dogs that are older because bad habits have been established. We have a new member to our family, Uncle sam wanted a dog of his own. (Emi is mine) Her name is Maggie and she is a 5 month old 1/2 German Shepherd rescue. I swear Emi flipped her off the other day, bugs her constantly. L, Auntie El
