I have a quote in my head that I associate with you: “A house with a happy puppy is a healthy home.” Is that something you said or wrote, or am I just misattributing? We have an almost pathologically cheerful puppy (8 1/2 year-old Chocolate Lab mix). Does that mean our home is healthy?

Daniel replies:


It means your dog is happy. Your home may be healthy, (I suppose that means the roof is in good shape, basement is fairly dry, no termites or raccoons in the attic), but I don't know that makes a difference to the Labrador. They tend to be cheerful dogs, wherever they are. No, I didn't say that silly thing.
