Dogging Romance

Dear Women (and Friends of Women) Readers,

Watching our mixed breed Chihuahua's wrap my mucho-macho husband around their tiny unmanicured paws, was an ah-ha moment.  Men really do want us to treat them like dogs!

Why? As companions, dogs are up the evolutionary scale in providing companionship to men that fits the male view of romance. If your relationship is on the wane — take notes on how your dog(s) treat their man. Imitate to make him yours again. 

An anonymous writer penned observations of why he would rather have a dog than a girlfriend that went something like this:

Dogs don't cry to get their way.

Dogs love all your friends. 

Dogs don't get upset when you run late. They are excited to see you whenever you show up.

Dogs don't get upset if you call them another dog's name and they love it when you want to play a little rough.

Canine parents don't come for extended visits, don't hint you should be getting married and wouldn't mind mind if you give any offspring away.

Anyone can get a good looking dog. 

Dogs don't shop. Canines never expect gifts, not even on Valentine's Day or their birthday. They have no use for flowers, cards or jewelry.

Dogs like it when you leave lots of things on the floor.

Dogs never need to examine the relationship or question your commitment.

Dogs love long car trips. The canine understands that following your instincts is more fun  than asking directions.

Dogs don't ask you if their jeans make them look fat. In fact, they generally prefer to run around naked.

Dogs understand when you raise your voice to get your point across.

Dogs don't worry about germs.

Dogs don't care if you've had other dogs. 

Dog's don't keep you waiting: they're ready to go 24 hours a day.

Dogs can't talk. Or criticize. In fact, when you are totally stupid, any dog is more likely to find it amusing than any woman. No matter what, they will never bring it up again.
