My 4-legged kid. Sometimes even she's too much work. I thought I understood border collies but they are a lot of energy in a very small package. I 'rescued' Molly in 1999 from a neighbour of my brother's who had left her tied to a tree as a puppy because she had become destructive. All she really needed was someone to pay attention to her. So she became my pseudo-kid.

She lives a very pampered life. Every work day, she goes to daycare which is at a local vets. For $10 she gets to play with the other dogs and get exercised so I can relax and not worry about it when I get home.
