The Woes of Single Parenting

Raising a monster pug all by your lonesome self while working full-time (for free) is NOT easy. It sucks, for both of us. I'm not getting any work done while at home because I have to play with her, clean up her messes, etc., AND spend a good hour or more at the dog run every evening. She is not getting enough attention, and by the time I get home she's so anxious for some lovin' that she barks her head off. And you don't want to hear the sounds she makes when I leave her line of sight (e.g., I go to the bathroom).

I am counting down the days 'till Boba's deadbeat dad returns. HURRY UP! I love my little monster, but I am in desperate need of a Boba vacation. Otherwise, I might end up forgetting her at the dog run one night...

poor Boba, her mommy doesn't love her anymore! JK, good luck with your little monster. If it is any consolation, Boba is adorable!

Yeah, she is quite cute, but sounds stressful too! Regardless, I want to meet her soon :)

I feel your pain. I have a black 5 month old.....she is wearing me out as well......but, fortunately, she has my 6 year old male fawn to annoy.....although, he seems to be growing wary of her.....and her pooping in their cage.
