I have developed as of today a new definition for what counts as a good morning. It's one where the following conditions hold true:
- There are the same number of dogs in your yard when you wake up as there were when you went to sleep.
- There exists no dog in any kind of trap or crate at the end of your carport, or anywhere else.
- You do not have to try to catch or trap any dog or vet any dog who is terrified of being handled.
- Your sweetie is just as invested in this whole dog rescue thing as you, to the extent that he gets up extra early to do dog feedings and wellness checks in spite of that he's got an actual work schedule to deal with.
- You have an excuse to share lots of dog-related photos and anecdotes with your friends, who tolerate your dog obsession as though it's not at all pathological, and as if they're not completely bored of dog stories.
By this standard, this was an excellent morning! Thanks Itchy, Colleen, Diane, Mike, Mary Ellen, Patep, Alina, Marian, Adam, Shannon, Jennifer, Jian, and everyone else who's listened so patiently and been so supportive over these weeks! xoxoxo

Your sweetie is definitely a good guy, in more ways than one!
And your dog thing is not pathological...you're a caninitarian. (trying out a blend of canine and humanitarian, but think it failed. blah!)
yr welcome, ever lovingly!

we've always know you to have this so-called disease, Amy! but we figured it was more help to the environment than harmful to it, so we didn't have an intervention years ago. we thought about it though. really.
