[Dailydrool] question about houseguests

[Dale Rutz]

Good morning Droolers,

So we had a debate at our house last night about Thor the houseguest.    I have 
a crate in order to be able to separate dogs (humpers) when necessary.  It might 
be because I am averse to them, but I have never had a dog in the house who 
wanted to be in a crate.  We tried convincing Thor he should sleep on the dog 
bed beside our bed (NOT coming up on out bed with Cyrus and Snoopy, that we know 
is a bad idea).  He cried and said he didn't want to sleep alone.  So Natalie 
said she wanted to sleep with Thor.  And I said ....

"I don't think it's a good idea to allow your child to sleep with a dog which 
was pulled from the pound the day before."  I really did.  I said that.  And all 
of the people and the dogs in our house looked at me like I was a clueless 
momPerson.  And Thor and Natalie slept in her bed all snuggled up.

So whatcha think droolers? Now Thor is mostly puppy with licks galor and aside 
from being humpty dumpty (gotta, just gotta get this boy neutred) he's 
delightful.   So, is it ok to let your 12 year old sleep with a virtual stranger 
from the pound who acts real sweet and seems REAL young?  Or should I be a bleep 
and not allow it.
