[quote=Anonymous]We got our first dog as a puppy a year ago--I thought I had ruined my life and still think that on some occasions, OP. It's certainly a lot more work and attention than I realized. When I'm out walking the dog and don't feel like it (most walks!), I try to be positive and say going out for a walk is definitely better for my health than sitting on the sofa, which is what I would be doing right now if I didn't have this d*mn dog! We also find ourselves on a ridiculous dog "bed time" schedule and I'm not sure why--he's just a dog, can't he go to bed whenever?! I'm not sure I have many words of wisdom, but I do think a mindset shift is necessary or you are just going to continue to be miserable. Unless you get rid of the dog, that's not a great way to spend your time. Having a dog definitely has it's (many) negatives, but I do really enjoy the snuggles and such, so keep thinking of those moments that bring you and your family joy. [/quote]
