Five years for someone your age is not that long... That puts you at 19, doesn't it? So you'll be finishing up high school and *probably* going on to college... That certainly sounds like the best time to add another dog to your life. What I'm saying is if you have a life now, and can't walk Roxy every day, then how do you expect to be able to walk a Greyhound every day and spend quality offleash time with it (in a fenced area) when your life is only going to get busier?
Well, I've learning to balance my life and pets together.

Well, then maybe I'll get one sooner. I know my limits, and I think I can handle another dog in the near future. I'm not saying it's going to happen, but I could and can handle one.

Actually, at 19, yes I probably will be in college, and yes I can handle my dogs and cats.

I could easily spend time with a Greyhound. I could, and will. I don't do it now because Roxy doesn't need that much excersize. She's laid back, and daily playtime tires her out.
