Pet Ownership; Do We Dare????


I say yes! Two mid to semi, :), late thirty year old women are wanting to start a family. We happen to think a pet is the natural progression of our steps toward this goal. I mean, if we can't take care of a pet, then we most certainly can not take care of a human. We are quite wonderful with plants...
I have learned how to nurture them, talk to them, and give them just enough water without drowning them. They are healthy and happy and I know that we are the reason why! :)
I am thinking a cocker spaniel, hence the cutest pic in the world above. Shelly on the other hand, is wanting something along the lines of a sporting canine. A Dalmatian if you will.
We still live an apartment and have to remind ourselves of our space limitations. It IS a big apartment, with lots of room for us and something to roam happily about.
Also...as much as I have tried to be amongst you working individuals, I am still unemployed. It seems to be good for the up and coming pet we will have. I will have some time to potty train if we are to get a pup. Shelly might freak out if the dog pees on the Cindy Crawford. ha.
For those of you who know we have tried this in the past, and NO it did not work. We were not ready. We did not think it through. We picked out the cutest dog on the side of the road and then found out it was possessed and then gave it to my mom! It was cute, but the dog WAS possessed and my mom gave it to a couple of guys who love to groom it and take care of it like it was a child. All that being said...my mom found out how much that mutt was worth, and wishes she had kept it. :)
We will not go jumping into this. We are going to wait for the right one, but we are doing this.
SOOOOOO...here we go.
Any input from anyone would be great. Anything on adoption processes, whether we should get a pup, or just a dog who needs us. Wish us well and hope for the best. Sincerely, Sherry and Shelly.
