Gee my youngest daughter would fit in here, no skin kids for her she says, not ever, and she has two Schnauzers too, Alex and Sabrina.
I laugh when you say you are Mommie and Daddy to your dogs as we are "Daisy, come see Nana, or Daisy, come see Poppa. We are Nana and Poppa to our Grandkids and Perry and Daisy. When Daisy comes to bed with me she has her stuffed red rabbit and she lays down beside me with her head on her pillow and the red rabbit between her paws. Perry on the other hand will only sleep in his crate but must have his blue rabbit in there with him. We do baby them but love to do it.
