The funny part of that was my mother didn't know that dogs were suppose to be fed once per day. She fed them three meals a day and that's why they were fat.
I don't particularly remember people having cats. If they did, they were outsie cats and were kept mostly out of the house.
I suspect most people back then preferred dogs as they were more lovable and didn't require people picking up after them like they are required to do today.

Were they cocker spaniels??? Sounds like they were somehow related to my "Mitzi" who I think my mom named after Mitzi Gaynor, the actress.
Mitzi also was very very large and also ate all of our leftovers......and then some.
After she died, at a ripe old age.........they got us another dog....but when he "took a fit" they told us he went to "live on a farm" a classic story in those days when they gave the dog away.
So sad.
