After two whole days, I am forming a first opinion of dog ownership and its pros and cons. Mostly pros.
Rumbi is so much fun to play with. He loves tug-of-war with his rope, fighting with me over his porcupine, and going on several walks each day. He loves being outside, which is great because I do too.
There is, however, one definite drawback.
Rumbi = Good
Rumbi's rope = Good
Rumbi's porcupine = Good
Rumbi's monkey = Good
Rumbi's poop, which I pick up with my bag-wrapped hand = BAD
There is a certain indignity in bending over to pick up your puppy's steamy little poop with your own hand. Then I carry it around with me as we walk.
Makes you wonder who's really in charge. I'm outside because HE wanted to go out, and now I'm stooping to pick up HIS poop.
Not a bad deal for the dog, if you ask me.
At least the bags are biodegradable. Huzzah.

Mwahahahah....
At least it's not your kids' poop!
he poops inside? he's still cute nontheless, however I have to voice my honest opinion and say that a little baby boy/girl would be much cuter! sniff! sniff!
I guess this is a great intro into parenting. Just you wait!
