I've given up sleeping in, or sleeping at all for that matter. I can't have normal dogs and just let them outside to run around, no, they find an escape route and sneak to the front door and bark to come back in. I've given up peace and quiet in the house because right now I have four pups and my two adult doggies. I can't travel on a plane, or at all for that matter because I would have to tote around 7 dogs. I won't leave them in the kennel because they hate me when I do that. I am now obsessed for some reason with buying a million different kinds of dog treats, thus have gave up my money.. lol.. I've given up my sanity at times as my friends think I'm crazy for having all these dogs..
Given up new carpet as Lilly refuses to poop outside, instead does it in the basement where we just hand nice, new berber carpet installed. I've given up every fleece blanket in the house plus about 10 more that I've bought here and there for them... Mostly my time is what i've given up. I currently don't work and i don't see how I ever could right now. Getting up at 7 am to let the dogs out, giving pups worming meds for 14 days, putting lillys eye drops in (she decided to get pink eye last weekend), keeping her away from pups until her pink eye goes away, feeding pups, feeding mom, feeding griffen who are all on different foods, not to mention I have four cats. One has UTI problems, one has hairball problems, ones a kitten and the other one just eats everything in sight, thus, they all get different foods as well. Blah, ok i'm rambling.. But I definately have given up alot, but wouldn't change it for the world. Needless to say, its a small zoo around here and keeps you on your toes.
