B) walking him in the heat of the summer
C) lots of money spent for vet bills and for when we travel
D) not being able to sleep in because he needs to go out

I miss him, but the freedom is really wonderful. I might change my mind though if some dog tugs at my heart. The memory of his precious little eyes were unforgettable. Tears come to my eyes now....
Different strokes for different folks, I guess. I consider A through D as helping to keep us young!
