Dating and dogs
Dear Steve: During an appearance on Late Night With Conan O'Brien, Sheryl Crow said she wouldn't date a guy who wouldn't roll around with her dogs and be willing to get snot on himself. I have two Newfoundlands, therefore I know something about snot. I have dates, but apparently I know more about dogs than men. You're a man, so you tell me. My attitude has been, if you can't deal with my dogs, forget it. As a result, I have no guys. Any suggestions?
