I hear you, upindust. I can understand that this bed is a big deal for you, and it might almost seem like Teddy is deliberately molesting the things you care about most. Your mattress is going to be fine, though. Even if it has a stain, the mattress is going to be flipped over half the time anyway, and covered with sheets. You will have many years to enjoy sleeping on it. By the way, congratulations on getting a real bed! I think you're going to be getting much better sleep.

If you grew up with a badly trained dog, you might unconciously believe you're doomed to always have bad dogs. That's not the case. Your parents should have trained their dog better, it's not right that a dog attack family members. This is not a judgment of your parents, they may have been great in all other respects, but they made a mistake there. You can definitely have a good dog of your own. He just needs the proper guidance.
