About The Dog Dad
Life shaped by a dog. For men who know.
I live with a dog. She is not a “fur-baby.” She is a recurring expense and a source of constant, minor household destruction.
This isn’t a guide on how to be a better owner. I don’t have tips or moral lessons. I just have a flat that smells of wet fur and a wardrobe that is slowly being reclaimed by the environment.
The terms of engagement
No sentimentality.
No “pawsitive” reinforcement.
No life lessons learned from a golden retriever.
I write about the reality of the situation. The hair in the butter, the ruined rugs, and the social trade-offs.

The comments are open
There is a section for comments. Other people who live like this are in there. You can talk to them if you feel the need.
