[quote=Anonymous]I grew up with both dogs and cats as pets but was especially attached to my dogs, and couldn't imagine a life in which I didn't have dogs as pets. Interestingly, once I had kids my interest in having pets really diminished. I really couldn't imagine having the same level of love for dogs anymore. DH never had pets growing up and is a very minimal, no-fuss lifestyle kind of person. I still really like dogs and enjoy playing with other relatives' and friends' pets, but have no huge desire to have our own. It's amusing to me that anyone would think this is a flaw! I think it's realistic to acknowledge they don't tug at my heartstrings the same way anymore. It's an animal, not a person, and as such deserves a human with the kind of forethought to understand the responsibility it entails. Hax's letter writer's BF isn't a bad person but is probably not the person for her![/quote]
