I may try writing off my dogs as children.

I figure if the IRS guy comes by to check, Ted can eat him.

He'd have to lick his butt a lot afterwards to get the taste out of his mouth, but thats his problem...

Yes, I know I just collided two jokes together.

Ah yes, you need to file a new IRS form W-4 with your employer, like this one:

Be careful you dont overdo it...if you end up having to pay a lot, the IRS may disallow you from claiming ANY dependent status for a period of time. They like their interest-free loans, they dont like giving them though. They're very funny about that.

I believe you'll be OK with the IRS as long as you withhold 90% of what you actually end up owing, or 100% of what you paid the previous year.
