Alright, then.
You want suggestions on what kind of show dog to get?
First do you mind me asking what Diesel and Lola's registered names are, I'm really curious.
And you need something small and obviously short coated because grooming is an issue. I suggest a Pug. They shed, but that's not an issue for your family. Another option would be a French Bulldog, but they can be difficult to housetrain and very expensive off the bat as puppies simply because they're somewhat rare. I think a Pug would be best, they're relatively easy dogs.
Come on guys! If you don't want a fight ALL of you need to stop contributing. Either reply with something related to the original question, or let this thread go.
Your Welcome Makayla. So has your mother said anything about Chihuahuas? I also recommend a Miniture Boston Terrier, or a French Bull Dog.

And to be honest, I'm not entirely sure about Lola's. Last time I heard they hadn't thought of it yet.
I agree with you.Quote:

A mini Boston? I've never heard of those. Is it some designer breed like Mini Aussies or something? I haven't talked to my mom about it yet because I've been so mad and focused on how everyone was making this board an argument :rolleyes: . But I'll talk to her today.Quote:

If you're looking for a show dog, a "miniature" Boston Terrier will not work, as they do not exist. They are a marketing ploy
tumors can't be controlled to tell you the truth. . I know that every dog can get them and is supseptiable to them. but I would get Alaska checked out by the vet and hopefully they are benign. :)

Wow, I am very surprised this us just continuing on, and on, and on and has not gotten anywhere.
Firstly, What happened to the fact that zoomer, warah, and whatever other screennames these girls have - leaving? Did they not say they disliked Pet Talk, disliked a majority of us, and wanted to leave. Why publically state you are "leaving" and then just stick around?
Secondly, It is not something wrong to think of a future dog. While personally I do not believe OP is educated and responsible enough to even have one dog, I'm pretty sure we are ALL guilty of thinking about future dogs. However, I do disagree with the treatment of Alaska. Cysts, cancerous or not, can be very bothersome. It is best to get them removed either way. They can grow and cause problems for the dog, especially if cancerous.
There is no way to prevent tumors/cysts. That's just bizzare. You can however take the responsible and necessary percautions to have them checked out.
Thirdly, There are a few people in here who should never even dare to speak of how other's treat their animals. Take a look in the mirror. No one here is perfect. A lot of you use the excuse "I have no control, it's my parent/s!!"
Why should this child be any different?
Fourthly,
I cannot wait for school to start.
I cannot wait for school to start.
I cannot wait for school to start.
I cannot wait for school to start.
I cannot wait for school to start.
I cannot wait for school to start.
I don't know if there is a way ? :confused: none of my dogs have or had tumors, but I am just saying it's not her fault that Alaska have tumors but it is best to get them looked at. :) and like I said hopefully they'll be benign (meaning not cancerous) :)Quote:

and yes Bri i know what your excuse will be. 'its not about me'
yeah well... arent you lucky.
