Dog Watcher

Dear SJG,
I'm experiencing some major craziness at the moment, and I thought, who better to turn to for advice than the gal who calls herself The Professor of Mishegas? So, here's my dilemma. There are times I must leave the house. I'd rather stay home and be cozy with Bruiser. But Bruiser needs to eat and so do I, and that means I must drive my vehicle to the market. Before I reluctantly depart to face the cold and bitter world, I turn on the TV, hand Bruiser the remote and let him watch whatever he wants. The other day when I came home, Bruiser quickly changed the channel. I think he didn't want me to see what he was watching. I waited till he was napping and hit "previous" on the remote. You'll never believe what came up! The Naughty Channel! I thought Bruiser was better than that. What should I do?
Sincerely,
Ashamed in Arleta

Dear Ashamed,
Listen, dogs are just like people, only less judgmental and much nicer. When it comes to TV, some pups prefer porn over PBS. What can you do? You have several options: You can command Bruiser to change his filthy, disgusting viewing habits. You can send Bruiser to therapy, which will cost you a bundle and I doubt insurance will over it. You can block adult content, don't ask me how, but there are ways. You can bury the remote in the backyard. You can do what I do: live with the shame, the guilt, the overall angst of it all, and let it haunt you into eternity.
You're Welcome,
The SJG
