No puppy for your girls

Dear Andy: I just got a great new job in a different city. I promised my two girls that they could pick out a new puppy for our new house when we moved in even though they are violently allergic to dog hair. I am now thinking that my promise was foolish and want to re-negotiate. I am afraid they will stop loving me unless I give them what they want. What should I do to be a good father? Money is no object. - Barry in Casablanca

Dear Barry: My wife and I traveled Morocco a few years ago. All of the locals said, “Don’t go to Casablanca, Casablanca not for tourists”. Let me tell you, they were right. That city has issues. The place is falling apart. What does this have to do with a puppy for your Daughters? Not much, it just tells me a little something about your decision making skills. Since you moved your girls to that pit you call a city, I think it only fair that you get your girls get a pony.
