Lol love it! I think we meet the majority of the criteria. I do have one to add...after my wedding venue hunt today!

#When looking for the perfect wedding venue the final choice made is not based on appearance, food or price....but on whether or not they'll let the dogs come!

Seriously...every place we went in today I asked if I could bring my dogs before I had even seen the room for the ceremony! Final choice made because they offer pet friendly log cabins! So we're paying for a week of accomodation just so we can easily have our dogs around on our wedding day!

Well for the stay home part to cuddle instead of going out is partly true. But only because my friends know that my place is very dog friendly so all of them bring their dogs and plus a friend which can lead to more dogs. Then they turn my place to a pet friendly night club lol. (my neighbors are always invited so they don't mind) :yahoo:

LOL - that's me in a nutshell!

On my desk, right now, the only picture on there is of Suka. Not my family, nor my friends...Suka.

Dog hair can be nutritious - extra protein - LOL

My Mom and Dad always joke with me that I act like a worried mother cause I ask them about Suka EVERY DAY. Of course, I ask about them too, but the majority of the email is about Suka. They don't seem offended about it, either!

I only really like to go to stores that allow pets. I go to this home hardware that's an extra 30 minutes away cause it allows pets and the one closer to me doesn't. I got to PetSmart and Petvalu instead of other pet stores cause they allow dogs in as well.
