Yeah. Here's what I think, and this is going to make me sound equally, on the other side, super soft. I think dogs are one of the greatest gifts to humankind. And I made a commitment to my dog, my very first dog I had of my own. I tell you this, probably the top ten hardest I've ever sobbed in my life was in that room when I put that dog down.
