Maggie got hit by a car... :(

Greetings,

I am just catching this thread now. I have seen you post before and if you don't mind, How Olds Are You?

If you are a juvenile (catching bus), then I guess you are just stuck with living by Mom and Dad's rules. But if you are 18 years (or around) old, maybe you can convince your parents to give you a chance to show that you can make them good house dogs. Maybe a summer job to show additional responsibility on your part. I don't know... just something to make them think about giving you more freedom to decide what's in your dogs best interests!!! Good luck! :D

I agree, Bobs Dad! Good point!

Willie :)

...and economical! The kennel you posted is really modestly priced. You could point this out to your parents, too. The kennel we use is quite a bit more $. To compare, you could show them these: http://www.petproproducts.com Maybe a summer job (if you are old enough) would allow you to help pay for them?

Omg, how awful that must have been. I'm so glad Maggie is ok!!!

That is sooo scary! I am so glad that she is okay. I remember when my RB Jewel was run over, she died right in my arms on the way to the vet.

Could you make a deal with your parents, so that you can get a fence or a kennel?

Well, I wish you luck, and everyone here is SO happy that Maggie is okay!

Thanks for the good thoughts everybody!! Sorry it took me so long to reply, I haven't been home.

I'm still working on that kennel, and if my parents won't let me buy a kennel (I can make enough money to pay for it in about a week or two, if I work everday, and Im getting a check of over $10,000 in a little bit, from an injury) then I'm going to draw something up that my grandpa could build for the girls.

Would it be stupid to just go to the hardware store, and buy like a 6 - 7' tall fencing, and pound in some post's to make a kennel for them? That would be a little less costly, even though it wouldn't look as nice....?

Thanks everybody!! So sorry to hear about the dogs you all have lost :(

As long as your girls are happy, and out of harms way, I don't think that it is a bad idea to go to Ace Hardware to pick up the fencing. Who cares how nice it does or doesn't look?:rolleyes::D
