		<description>I can definately relate to the article.  I have not only had my house remodeled, but my car as well.  One of my dogs ate the drivers seat one New Years day as I was making a quick stop at a friends.  But the article missed one of the biggest money savers.  The health benefits we receive - and I am not talking about the exercise.  As I am getting older the doctors continue to be impressed with how low my blood pressure is.  I am sure my furry friends play a big part in that.  They are also great at making sure I take a break from the computer every now and then to scratch them behind the ears.  Considering the continually rising cost of health care, I am convinced this is a big financial savings.  :)</description>

		<description>&lt;a href=&#039;#comment-20134&#039; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;@AIR&lt;/a&gt; - Andrea, that&#039;s pretty funny!! Around here the rule is, if it&#039;s on the floor, that is the dog&#039;s territory and only the fault of the person who left it there.  We now make sure all important papers are &#039;tucked&#039; away just in case.  Too easy for stuff to &#039;fall&#039; on the floor... LOL</description>

		<description>True incident somewhat like the Identity Theft Protection.

Last year our boy ATE one of my master card bills.  I could still read the amount owed but the statement was torn, chewed on, slobbered on...a complete mess.  I paid it and stuffed the statement in the envelope with a note.

&quot;Sorry, but the dog ate it.&quot;

The following month I needed to call them on an issue.  When the rep pulled up my account he burst out laughing.  Apparently, the company got a big laugh out of the dog slobbered remittance.

I am now a preferred customer.</description>
