After our hubby and I got married and purchased a house, the first thing she did was to buy a pet.
I expected him to come condo with a small pet that our father would’ve called an ankle biter.
What the people I was with and I ended up with was a full-size pitbull that she had rescued from a shelter. The pet seemed to be a bit skittish, but she listened well, and she was housetrained. The only thing our pet was not beach house trained for, was how to keep her dander from the air. It did not take long for me to realize that with a pet in the house, the people I was with and I were going to have to change the air filters more often. When our hubby came condo with the hour and third pet with the excuse that Buff needed friends, I was not blissful. Buff seemed to be quite blissful with just us. Two weeks later I had to call the Heating and Air Conditioning business. With 3 pets in the house, our air conditioning component was unable to keep up with all the pet hair and dander. The Heating and Air Conditioning Tech told us about the new air filters that were made just for families with pets. It was able to filter out more pet dander, and more hair, which would have legitimately ended up in our A/C unit. Had the people I was with and I been using those air filters earlier, the people I was with and I would not be purchasing a new air conditioning unit. I looked at our hubby and told him I guess the people I was with and I all need to live and learn. If she brought any more pets home, I told him she was going to be living without me.
