That's a refreshing switch. And no, I wouldn't mess with your routine. Julie, great to meet you online after meeting you in person. That’s a refreshing switch.

With a new bulldog, I'm enjoying the daily ritual of a walk and then some grooming and patting time... it calms me and he gives me this low, hypnotic bulldog growly purr.

Don't mess with the bulldog's ritual... or mine. Most rituals have this cool ability to give and take, and should have functional and spiritual properties.
