I have a very strong conviction about pets for children, and a very, very strong conviction that the pet should be a dog. You know, having a dog teaches responsibility. It teaches love for a creature that is dependent on you. It teaches compassion. But in my own particular world there is a specific, which is my dog has a voice, supplied by me. And my dog weighs in on all the family issues, gives advice, encourages, through my voice. And I have to say that many times my dog gives better advice than I do. Works really well to lighten a bad situation. For instance, if my child is having a bad situation, the dog will interject and say that he has also had a rough time at the dog park with his dog friends. And why is that poodle all full of herself? And always gets a laugh. Definitely lightens up the situation. So I'm a big believer in dogs, particularly pugs, because as the great humorist Margot Kauffman said, "the pug is living proof that God has a sense of humor."
