Everybody is looking for pools and pets right now. And ain't much of either available lol. Just filled out an application for this one. I doubt she is even still available but gotta try.

I just hope the new owners still love the dogs after this covid-19 pandemic ends.

Whenever the fuck that might be. 2021? 2022? 2023? Who the fuck really knows?

Be a step in the right direction to have a leader of the free world who actually cares.

I have a feeling I should order another year's supply of paper masks.

This will be our first for our family. I had a Dachshund and a Jack Russel growing up. And the wife had a Tibetan Spaniel growing up. But we've been petless for 12 years now. And the kid needs a buddy. Since she ain't got a sibling. And I want a dog regardless lol .
I've had 6 dogs since I bought my house in 1988.

Two at a time since around 2007. Last 4 were shelter dogs, first 2 were miniature pinschers. The minpins both had health problems their entire lives and I was forever turned against pure bred dogs.

The first was from a puppy mill which I found out when he had bladder stones at age 2. I called the breeder on the paper work and she said she "may have made a mistake" with that litter. Thanks a lot bitch. He lived 11 years 7 months and 21 days. And had 4 major surgeries and was given 6 months to live 3 years before he died. He had a half dozen things wrong with him at the end.

The second minpin was from the president of the minpin breeding association in Maryland. It was over sized for the breed and she couldn't show it. He died at age 7 after $1000's in medical bills and they never could diagnose what was wrong with him other than an over active immune system that constantly attacked his own body. He'd have seizures on the floor, laying sideways looking like he was trying to run. It was heart breaking. We had him to specialists in Pittsburgh who did MRI's and couldn't solve it. His scripts were expensive and only bought time in the end.

All my shelter dogs lived long lives and seemed to be extra loving for being rescued. We got our last dog last fall and the shelter was loaded at the time.

A lot has happened since then I guess.

Yeah I'm going rescue or bust. Puppies are like $2000+ right now to boot. I kid you not. $2000+!

2K easy.....I had dobermans and rotties growing up. But only 2 of many had issues.........gotta do your homework if you want a PB. But I'm all for rescue dogs. You can get a damn good dog that way.
You would think the president of the minpin breeding association who is on the show circuit would know what she's doing though.

Her house has a full blown kennel in her basement. At least least 20 dogs, an infirmary, surgical equipment the whole 9 yards.

You would hope.

Did you get references? Go hang out with the mom and dad? Was it just a stud? How many born over the last few years?......will also give you an idea of "quantity or quality"

Funny you can almost ask the same questions about weed!
