Small Dogs

[Daisy and Delilah]

Please check into getting a Chihuahua! They are the sweetest little dogs. To know a Chihuahua is to love a Chihuahua. They do bark at something or someone that needs to be barked at but they don't bark all the time. I try to train them as to what they need to bark at and not let them get too barky unnecessarily. They do shed some but you can brush them frequently to cut down on that. They're not heavy shedders though. My Chis are only guilty of wanting alot of affection and loving me to death That certainly can't be bad can it?

Because I assumed she was waiting until one of her current dogs went to the RB.. I'm not getting another dog until then, and by future that sounded like what she meant.

Buttercup, I'm not trying to be rude to you in anyway, but I have noticed in a number of threads you always post something negative after Briana posts and it always seems directed to her. I really don't know if you two had a fight or something, but I get aggrivated that you have done this in a number of threads latley when Briana isn't doing anything wrong. I know this is rather off topic, but I'm just saying there is no reason for it. Agian, I don't know what happened or if something even happened but I'm just saying...

I agree, I have seen you do that too in alot of threads.

If Alska has three tumors that you "cannot afford" to do anything about, you cannot afford a new dog. It will require veterinary care, shots, food, check-ups, and getting a "show quality" purebred of any breed is going to be expensive. And showing a dog is not cheap either.

Please ask your mom to take care of the dogs you have before even considering a new dog.

I thought you co-owned a show dog?

Our next dog won't be right after Alaska. It'll be after we move. Just thinking ahead.

I totally agree with you...

And I personally think it's a great idea to think ahead, especially when you're considering a different breed.

I'm currently talking to a Flat-Coated Retriever breeder about getting a puppy in 3-4 years, after college, and after we move out on some acreage. This type of decision is one that requires lots of planning if you are going to be getting a dog from a reputable breeder.

Get a GREYHOUND!

Some girls are as small as 50lbs!

I would personally wait,there is no need to start replacing dogs while they are still living,i would be focused on there welfare instead of "choosing"another breed,If you cannot afford to take your dog to the vet for tumors how do you think you will be able to afford a purebred dog,and a show dog at that,It will cost alot more than what it would to take Georgia in to have her looked at.This just aggravates me you should not own any animal if you cannot afford vet bills now this is for your Mother,She could be in pain and there is nothing that can be done.

I would say Chihuahuas are a pretty neat little dog, no, I'm not biased at all. Mine does not bark unless I, personally, get her riled up and we play and then it's still not very much. I haven't seen her shed, yet, but I'm sure she probably does (which isn't a big deal for me at all). Some, like my Spanky girl, are VERY tiny and you have to watch for them. Spanky loves cats, other doogs, and pretty much everything and everyone (except my FIL, it seems). I would definitely look into them.

Doxies are sweet. Overall, they seem to be a pretty healthy breed minus the back problems and they're prone to obesity. They are nice, sweet, loving, protectors. However, they can be incredibly audible at times!

Maltese, Yorkies, and Poodles are awesome.

Cant she think ahead
