One overhears many people lamenting, that they lead a "dog's life". Frankly, I have no idea what they are complaining about. Not if they lead anything like the life my dog does.

That's my dog "Whisky", or more accurately, my wife's dog. He leads a pampered life in my home, and nobody in my family will dispute that. The entire family is at his beck and call, and he will not tolerate any tardiness on the part of anybody when he needs something.
He sleeps in our bedroom, and I am normally up by 6 am to let him out. There are days when he decides he's going to sleep in, and if I try to wake him, to let him out, he give me this look as if to say " whats with you - it's still dark outside." On the days when I have had a good time at either the 19th Hole or the Double, will be the day when he decides he wants to be let out at 5am.
He lets my wife sleep though - maybe it's because she is the one who feeds him, and he certainly seems to know that he should not bite/disturb the hand that feeds him.
My wife has now changed his name to Whiskers. She claims it suits him better. My take on that is, it's because people started looking at her strangely, as she was constantly calling for Whisky, any time of the day or night.
Having a dog is endless hours of fun and entertainment. He is not the least bit bothered if you come home late, sober or inebriated, in a bad mood or good, he will be there to give you a very warm welcome always.
I strongly recommend everyone gets one, it's a great LIFE.
