Personally would rather have a dog than kids but not having any luck winning the domestic battle as she says dog will leave hair on the sofa and **** everywhere. How to persuade the missus? Maybe throw a wobbly and say no dog = no kids?
Promise & keep promise that:- You will walk animal even when hungover to back teeth You will pick up animals **** see above You will pay all vet bills You will house train animal You will vacuum house daily Animal will not go near furniture/shoes/upstairs You will pay for all food & accessories You get the picture - basically animal will have no impact on your other half. Thats more or less what most men expect of women wi kids even now
Easy! Get a Schnauzer - they don't malt. As for it shitting everywhere, tell her it's good practice for when you have to toilet train kids!
