Marcos Ortiz Blog: "Sic em"

I can't believe it. Now they want our pets to sleep on the floor. The Centers for Disease Control just published a study that shows pets, dogs and cats can be deadly for your health. It says sleeping with your dog or cat can cause meningitis and other scary stuff. I don't buy it. How heartless. Our Cavalier King Charles has been our dear friend for the past seven years and it's a tremendous feeling when he cuddles up to my daughter, or wife and myself. He's been sleeping with my daughter and sometimes my wife and I for the past seven years. And we haven't been taken ill at all. No way am I going to force him to sleep on the floor. He deserves first rate treatment at our house. I'm sure the author of the study is angry because he never got that dog when he was six years old for his birthday.

Really, whats behind this study? A bunch of people who are so bored and eager to look like their actually working on something that when all is said and done is more like some pointless attempt to spread fear to the general public in the case that someones dog is sleeping on their bed. With a little common sense or anyone with half a brain that lets their dog sleep on their bed, should they wash their blanket or even throw it in a dryer often will create an effective measure against any possible health hazard or something like a rash or worse that could result from something like poor cleaning habits.
