I actually have three. The other dog in the picture(s) is a friend of
mine's (who happens to love jumping up on my bike to be near my
dogs--but he rides too).

My biggest issue is choosing who gets to go for the ride (they all LOVE
to). I've actually considered buying a second seat that sits on top of
the tour pack. Then I can take all three! (As if I don't get enough
looks and "can I take a picture?!" crap already.)

They do have their personalities! We have two cats too, so if they all
get into the act it can get kind of wild. I have one cat that demands to
drink only fresh R/O water. Nothing else will do (won't even look at
tap-water).

Well my 19-year-old, in her brand-knew truck, decided to mow down the
parking "pole" after buying a 5$ cup of coffee at one of those drive-up
coffee shops.

The damage was $1,200, and she had to pay for it ($1000 deductible, and
I didn't want to chance an insurance hike for $200--I'm actually paying
quite little considering the number of vehicles and the youthful driver
thing--and I only kept the deductible high on my daughter's car, as her
comp/conclusion were the most expensive). Anyway I insisted on
professional body-shop repair; nothing less (yea, I cosigned).

She learned a lesson: that $5 cup of coffee cost her $1,205.00 since she
was in a rush (her wheels were turned and she jumped on the
accelerator). I told her to be thankful she didn't hit someone, and I
think she did learn from it. She's just happy that the coffee shop
didn't ask her to pay for that cement pole she knocked down--which I
demanded she offer to pay for (no police report).

Yikes. Sounds like you might have your hands full a little more than I
do!
