As I type this I am cheating on my dog.

Whenever I am home my dog Toby sleeps on my bed with me. It's cosy, and cute and maybe a little crazy-old-ladyish but I am okay with it.

I'm "house-sitting" (for lack of a better term) in Toronto right now, and the house in question is home to a 16 year old dog named Bear. Bear is asleep on the foot of my bed. I couldn't help it! He's so old yet somehow he still has these puppy dog eyes, and I couldn't resist.

Only problem is while Toby is a small, wire-haired terrier, Bear is a large, furry (smelly!) dog... that I am allergic to. I just sneezed 5 times IN A ROW.

Hellooooo regrettable decision..
