I called my sister recently to organize a visit and my six-year-old niece answered the phone, so I asked if I could share her room. she replied they already had visitors and that her room was taken.
I could hear their family dog barking in the background, so I jokingly asked: “How about I sleep with Milo in her kennel?”
“Sorry,” my niece replied matter-of-factly, “Only one dog can sleep in there at a time.”
