Get a dog.

And, Hi!

I know you have your eye on a breed, Wendy, but maybe just take a visit to a reputable shelter and meet their guests. You might be surprised. And as much as people would like to attribute specific traits to specific breeds, they're all individuals, too.

That's where we always get our cats, but I had a collie growing up and then our max and they were both such incredible dogs. When I was a teen-ager, my Hamilton had a founding dog that was incredibly sweet until my mom brought him to obedience school and he broke a metal choke collar trying to attack a full sized Doberman. He also was not to be trusted around little children. Sweet, gentle loving thing that has some scary quirks. With mo and cinders, I don't want to take chances. And I'd really like another collie. The smooths are just hard to find.

Ouch. That is a punch in the gut. I'll second what Gina said, hang in there.

So sorry Wendy. Don't give up. The right puppy will come along and it will all be worth it in the end.

That is so sad, Wendy. I am sorry.

I thought I had a puppy I was getting in April.

The puppy died.

It's not fair. I feel horrible and I didn't even meet the puppy.

I've been looking now since October and it's getting harder.

Had to write this because I'm sitting here crying over a dog I'd never met, but still thought would be mine. Do I really want to put myself through this again? in 10-13 years it will hurt a lot more than this. :(

Ah, I can almost smell that awesome eau-de-puppy! Nothing like it :-)

That is so weird. I downloaded it again, it previews upright. It opens in photoshop upright. And when I save it out without changing it, it's upright.

Hmmm -- ok, they're coming through as upside down mole rats, and I'm not quite sure why... I'll have to flip them later. Sorry!

Pictures! We need pictures!

It's not mine yet. I only have a couple of forwarded pictures from a breeder in Tennessee. It sounds like one of the puppies is mine, but I'm being cautious, because I was strung along for 4.5 months by another breeder. But this sounds really good.

So put THOSE in your workshop and show us the nekkid mole-rat puppies!

Make SURE it's a dog that's photogenic. Stay FAR away from black dogs! I speak from experience. Border Collies, on the other hand, are great for photographing. So are Weimeraners!


Looking at another max: smooth collie. But blue Merle this time.

That is great. A new dog. A new friend. A new model for challenges. Sounds like a winner to me.
