"Torture" = Love

Yup! In our house we "torture" the people or animals we love. It started with the puppies as we were baby proofing them so that no matter what a baby, toddler, kid did our dogs would not react negatively. This involved taking food away while they were eating, playing with them while they were eating, tying their ears in knots (go Bassett Hounds!), pulling tails, wrestling and so forth. I even dressed them up in human clothes. We have always referred to it as "torture" and the dogs in turn didn't care or gave us kisses in return.

Well, the "torture" didn't stop with the dogs...
