Let Sleeping Dogs Lie?

Whomever said "let sleeping dogs lie" didn't know my dog. This 20 lb, spoiled little doggie has something I can't believe actually comes from him. Usually women complain about their husband's doing this. Usually it is the topic of conversation with a doctor or close friend. Many people wonder what the cause is, of which there can be many. Whatever causes this, in a little dog that usually sleeps the day and night away, is the mystery. And whomever suggested that you let sleeping dogs lie, didn't have one that does this so loudly that it wakes both my husband and me up in the middle of the night. We are sorry but we can't let our sleeping dog lie because he SNORES! I am not exaggerating. One time when I was away, my husband called me to let me hear the dog snoring. I couldn't stop laughing. It sounded like an old man. You know the kind you imitate because of how hysterical it sounds. Yup! That's my dog. So letting our sleeping dog lie, is totally out of the question. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
