a lot of real dog trainers and "animal people" would disagree with you that your dog doesn't belong on your bed. it belongs in its own bed, or crate trained, or... in the basement if that's where its "den" is. i'm not sure what your basement looks like, but ours has walls, doors, floors, lights and furniture. although our basement belongs to our cats, were it not for them i would have no qualms with keeping my dog down there.

Let's imagine a world where it's possible to have two dogs of the same type. Like, I don't know. Two St. Bernards, two beagles, two big fuzzy dogs, two little dogs, etc.. Okay, keep up with me here, now, let's imagine that the OP has a St. Bernard, and their neighbor has a St. Bernard, too. It's kind of like magic. This is exciting, right?! Well, at 4:30 in the morning, it's usually very dark, and since the dog is running away, the OP would not have a clear view of the pup, so it would be very, very difficult to tell whose dog it is, correct? That's how someone would not know that it's their ******* dog. Bejeebus, kid.

i know, wtf. where I live, we not only have an abundance of brindle APBTs, but also golden retrievers, and basic "carolina dog"-looking dogs, all down one street.

Here, I'll help you like I helped that other kid. --Let's imagine a world where it's possible to have two dogs of the same type. Like, I don't know.
