I love animals and always had a dog and several cats growing up, but after several horrid experiences with neighbor's who had barking dogs in pretty much every place we've lived, I doubt my husband and I will ever get a dog. We have two cats and we love them!Rachelle Christensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05522589944408062365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25267270.post-21375808515751802092008-04-11T13:51:00.000-07:002008-04-11T13:51:00.000-07:00Dog ownership rocks.

I agree that you were right about swearing dogs off after reading of your first two experiences.

I would hate not having one. However, right now we have my son's two black labs. I would be happy to let them go except I would have to start over with a puppy and my yard is already a mess from these two!<BR/><BR/>I am all for outside animals- all the way. No curling up in front of the fireplace for my animals- unless you are a kitty, but then I want you on my feet in the night when it is cold.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03761951935843784725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25267270.post-54719371419938958322008-04-10T16:02:00.000-07:002008-04-10T16:02:00.000-07:00We finally have the coolest dog in the world after...We finally have the coolest dog in the world after several dismal failures.

I've won for several years, but I have a feeling eventually I'll lose--I'm already outvoted around here. <BR/><BR/>I'm a cat person, but we've had two, and both experiences ended badly (the first not unlike your experience with the poodle--I can so relate. I was a mess), so the next pet will be a dog. I'm digging in my heels as long as I can.Annette Lyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12493583432919249814noreply@blogger.com
