John,

I’ve got to agree with those who say you should get another dog. I know you said you weren’t sure you were up to caring for it, but my bet would be that you’d find that ability as soon as you saw that animal needing your love and attention.

It sounds like you and Pat could help each other. His dog needs a good home and you need a loving companion. No one loves you more than your dog, but you already know that.

How could you resist a face like this?
