The next morning, I went up to my son&#8217;s room to wake him up and froze in shock. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My husband was standing there, holding the dog&#8217;s collar in one hand and a crumpled note in the other.

He couldn&#8217;t believe I had gone behind his back like this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi Bright Side, my stepdaughter has owned a &#8220;therapy&#8221; dog since her parents&#8217; divorce.
