Apparently your experience with this is about as good as your spelling. :rolleyes::mad::rolleyes:
My dog, from the time she was born to the time I picked her up, at 6 weeks, was raised side by side with kittens, she suckled the mom right along side a kitty. From the time, Keegan realized she was bigger than Kylie, I don't trust her with her. She is ok 50% of the time, the other 50% she is trying to eat her. I am not sure if I will ever be able to let Keegan out of the crate while Kylie is around and I am not there, I am afraid of the consequences. And some breeds, their prey drive is simply too strong to ignore.

A pateint breed with low or no prey drive. Gets along with other dogs, and animals and is cute as heck lol .. Oh ya and not hyper,,... :p

I think you can eliminate the Shiba from your list--they are cute as heck--but also very hyper. Ours in particular has a high prey drive (just for rodents), because that is what the breed was originally bred for. He also wasn't socialized well as a pup, and doesn't accept other dogs right away--but that's just my dog, they are all different. Oh, and Kito has no patience either.

maybe I should redo my perfect breed status eh?

Low or no prey drive, good tempered, good with other breeds.
:) is that better..

Tikeya's mom, I apologize. I didn't know. I should have been more understanding. BUT that still doesn't change that I think you should try KayAnn and YellowLabLover's approach and go to the shelter rather than getting a purebreed.
(thanks kayann!! ;) )

I check out the Milwaukee Humane Society website everyday to see what new animals come in.

I have two huskies. Huskies are pack animals....therefore are much happier with another dog in the house. There are husky rescue groups all across the States - I volunteer for one. There are so many that need good homes....as opposed to going out and buying one.

There was a post on here earlier today about tikeyas_mom and something that happened on another forum.

I'm curious what happened to it.

No, the post was here early yesterday I believe, before anything with the rabbit happened. It was not about that.
