Thread: What WAS your limit?

  1. #16
    Unfortunately, I can only afford one right now......and Moose is definitely all I have time for. I'm sure he would love to have another pup around with him to play with, and he definitely lets that be known everytime I take him to my parents' house and he gets to play with their Golden. Poor guy....he's just so deprived.

    I think our limit is 2. I want to wait until Malone is a little older and settled down a bit before getting another. I think I would like to either get another golden lab, black lab, or golden retriever. But we'll just hafta wait and see what the future holds.

    Accually, I do have 7 in the house when Dutchess comes to visit. And they are not 7 small dogs either. We are talking large labs and goldens!

    Chester really made it clear for a long time that he didn't want any other dogs in our home. Then we found Millie and they "clicked". So we adjusted and our limit was 2.

    Then along came Aneko. She doesn't "click" with anyone except my husband. Who knows what our future limit may be?Right now I think we're holding at 3.

    And I found the cutest little westie on petfinder today!

    Welllllll ..... I have ten dogs now, so I had to vote the "10+" category. But, in all honesty, ten dogs is way, way too many. I will never have this many again.

    I had one dog from the time I was four years old until I was in the seventh grade. Then my brother died, and we took his dog. Then we had two dogs until they died. A year later I got Lacie, and had one dog for a year. Then she was lonesome, so I got her a buddy. I had two dogs again for five years. Then I got Keito and Queenie, and I had four dogs for four years.

    Then I started fostering and doing breed rescue, and all heck broke loose. I have had between eight and fourteen dogs in the house at all times since 1998.

    No more, though. I'm not getting any more dogs, no matter how sad the story it, until all these are gone. Then I will have two again.

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien

    It was originally, no dogs. BUT...to make a long story short we ended up with 2. Possibly a third...

    Pam, have you seen that commercial with the little pug in it? It's for some sort of asthma medication, and the guy runs all over looking for his pug, and he just keep passing him by--he's on the up escalator, and the pug is on the other one, and finally he hails a cab and the pug is in the seat grinning at him--it's so cute!!!!!!

    I voted for 2 even tho one right now is my limit. Maybe its that I can see myself having at least 2 PETS. I can see myself always having a dog and a cat (maybe 2 cats ) It would also depend on the size of the dogs. But for right now I truly enjoy the harmony for the most part, of my household right now.

    none, as in we dont have a limit never have, our dogs are athletes only shadow is a pet , of coarse the others are treated as pets, but they are athletes kept on exersize planes, and diet plans, and kept on a racing weight(if they were pets they would not be fat just a more normal weight) however the athletes are thin, light, agile, and bought, received, or adopted for sports not pets, so we really dont have a limit.
