Janie, if you don't stop showing off those babies I'm gonna get very upset.

It don't look like we'll ever be grandparents. Elder son says "It's not on my agenda!" And the younger's wife cannot have kids. Darn! And I already had the drum set picked out, and the thousand piece Leggos, and....." Ah, well. :(

I don't like small dogs, myself. I'm always afraid I'm going to hurt them. Intellectually I know they're just as tough (sometimes tougher---my aunt used to raise Pekinese). But my gut just doesn't believe it.

Although I've had all sorts of dogs, through the years, I've only had bird dogs the past quarter century. Right now it's Gwynn, a Lewellen Setter with a nose that won't quit.

The only dogs I object to are the new "designer" breeds. It's not the dogs that bother me, it's the breeders. Talk about marketing hype: people have actually come up with a way of selling mutts for thousands of dollars.

That's a fact! And then you have so many who will not be responsible pet owners and continually have litter after litter of unwanted puppies, it's appauling! And these breeders are appauling as well, making more puppies in their greediness! A racket indeed!!!

And Eddie and I love hunting dogs, our next one will be a short haired breed, maybe a beagle!

Cathy, you can't have a beagle.

The joy is listening to them sing in harmony. That's why they run them in packs.

Five is a good number!

:mad: If I had five I might begin a very distinct dislike for dogs, especially those noisy little beagles:D

how cute.... a little vegetarian dog! I do have a little bunny and she is actually a pretty picky eater! She doesn't like basil either, but she will eat apples like crazy!
