Those were my companions when I was childless (and single) and during a period of serious illness.  They were a pain in the neck, expensive and tied me down, but I loved those dogs--should I say it--more than I love some people.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4953607740696523736/8822286950366556233/comments/default/3250410656699020374'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4953607740696523736/8822286950366556233/comments/default/3250410656699020374'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://childlessbymarriage.blogspot.com/2009/03/get-rid-of-dogs.html?showComment=1236228960000#c3250410656699020374' title=''/><author><name>Cathy E.

VERY rarely is it seriously suggested that children should be given away when they cause the same problems you have just described!&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I'm glad you're keeping your babies.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I am truly sorry for your recent life catastrophes, Sue. I have no doubt your pups are huge sources of comfort and love to you right now, no matter the chaos they cause.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4953607740696523736/8822286950366556233/comments/default/4845470918331639591'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4953607740696523736/8822286950366556233/comments/default/4845470918331639591'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://childlessbymarriage.blogspot.com/2009/03/get-rid-of-dogs.html?showComment=1235955960000#c4845470918331639591' title=''/><author><name>french panic</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08387613398913818918</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://childlessbymarriage.blogspot.com/2009/03/get-rid-of-dogs.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953607740696523736.post-8822286950366556233' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4953607740696523736/posts/default/8822286950366556233' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
