THEY WERE ALL SLEEPING! :hay:

Deadbeat? We don’t know. But they could have been poor too? Hell they could have been well off, and just had a matress on the floor in a den or something, and took a nap. Do you have kids? Do you know how exhausting taking care of an infant is? If you are constantly exhausted, how hard is it to sleep through something? Think about that.

The dog having shots/being older would not prevent it from knawing on some toes by any means :shrug: That’s what dogs do.
