Debbie - my brother has a purebred blue tick (one eyed Bart) and his son who is half BT and half Beagle. They both will kill anything that comes into the yard non canine. The list includes ducks, squirrels, birds, and skunks (and probably more my brother hasn't shared). They will shake the poor little creatures to death. They go insane when they see the neighbor's cat. I have no idea if this is a common trait or just lack of proper training but it scares me.
sirrahoop... looks WAYYYYY too much like sirrahPOOP... just like dad was afraid of in the back yard!
Pam, I think many people have a wrong opinion of poodles because of their stylish hairdo.Quote:

Hey everyone don't worry. No need to explain as I know the word "poodle" often conjures up a strange looking dog in many people's minds. :) Before I got my first one in 1970 I felt much the same way. Now they have become like potato chips for me - I couldn't stop with just one. :D As with pitbulls, poodles often get a bad rap, but for obviously other reasons.
Seriously Debbie, no one here wants to put the pressure on you at all. We know you have a heart for all animals and if and when the time comes that you bring a dog into your home he/she will be a lucky one for sure! Please break it to the kitties gently though! :p
Anyone who passes up on getting to know a Poodle is truly missing out. My Reecie is the SWEETEST, quietest, most loving little boy. He's not yappy or froo-froo or any of that other stuff people like to quickly assume. Pam's right - its the exact same thing people do with Pits and other breeds. I can't even imagine what I'd do without my Reece boy. He helps me raise my foster kittens, he's done some therapy work (and will do more soon), and he's always there for a cuddle when I need him.
I actually voted "no" because I had never read anywhere where Debbie or Dennis expressed an interest in having a dog, plus knowing that they had 3 cats and 2 on the way, I thought the timing was off. I know this was meant in fun, but that was my immediate reaction, so I pressed the button.Quote:

I have 4 dogs and 2 cats, and they all do fine, so I know it's possible, just didn't want too much stress at one time on the parents!!!! :)
Just chiming in with my $.02--reading this thread I had one breed in mind--SHIBA INU:) They come in orange, and are very cat like!!
So did I. I know everyone wants them to get a dog and I'm sure they love dogs, but neither of them seem to want one right NOW, so I voted no.Quote:
