Get a dog they said; it will be fun. I grew up with dogs and like the company of a well behaved dog. My stepson asks for a dog, and after two years, the wife and I go to our local animal shelter to find a canine companion. We come across a Pitbull-Shephard mix, and he is a quiet, handsome looking dog. He loves to be petted and is a bit nervous.

The Shelter Committee reviews the families and our family is chosen. I spend $900 in preparation of welcoming the pooch Ace into our home. He is 37 pounds of nervous muscle.

This story comes from my diary of the time we had Ace. Driving home from the shelter, I imagine Ace at my retirement party after giving my speech and eating some cake while he runs up and licks my face to congratulate me for working 45 plus years to be able to live in a house, have heat in the winter time and food in the fridge.

A dog is a man's best friend. What happens when the dog becomes your nightmare? What will people say if I return this dog back to the shelter? It will be fun they said.
