496 days ago - You love your partner, but there’s this shaggy, snarling interloper who continues to block your way to relationship bliss. No, not your mother-in-law, but your significant other’s significant four-legged other: the pet. She’s had kitty Mr. Twinkles since she was a coed. He’s had bulldog Bruno since Bush Senior was in office. Too bad they slobber all over your Armani suit or use your purse as a chew toy. Is “love me, love my pet” an impossibility?
