I don’t want to alarm anyone, but apparently it’s FREAK ANIMAL WEEK.
It all started out with the conjoined barn swallows.
Then there was the 96-tentacled octopus.
And then, the six-legged deer.
I know Dave’s got the dog fever, but given the trend, I’m not sure we wouldn’t end up with one who’d absorbed four of his littermates that would then start growing out his back.

Oh the H.P. Lovecraft people are going to have a field day with this stuff.
Sheesh! Mutant animals are my personal nightmare. I’d take fish nibbling at my toes any day…
Speaking of Dave’s dog fever, I remember hearing on Overwhelming Positivity that he’s hoping to get two dogs at once. That sounds like a good idea at first, but it’s actually not – the dogs will bond to each other, but not to you. It’s best to get one dog, have it for awhile and let it develop strong bonds to you, and then get another dog. The second dog will then bond to you as well as the first dog, because the first dog will already be bonded to you. Apologies if someone has already pointed this out and I’m being redundant, but this is a mistake a lot of people make. With you not being a dog person, so much, it seemed worth sharing. Also, there are rescue societies for just about every breed, so if you want a schnauzer without going through a breeder, there will be ways to do it.
