    In the near future (next year) I am getting a Toller, and that'll be it for dogs for me probably until Tango is gone (so about 10 years from now, I'm guessing). I dont really want more than two dogs at a time until I have bought my own house and such and I'm not sure when that will be. In the far off future I'll have more Tollers, hopefully a Belgian Shepherd (Groenendael or Terv) at some point, and hopefully a Border Collie or an Australian Shepherd at some point aswell. Tollers are for sure though - I know I'll have plenty of them in my lifetime.

    There aren't really any other pets I'd like to own besides dogs. I'll always have dogs - they're pretty much my life. I'd love a cat someday, but can't see that ever happening because half my family is allergic and they'd never be able to visit.

    I hope to have the money and time for any of those some day. I will always have housepets, but livestock would be great. The only for sure thing is my continuing growth in the fish business. I hope to have room for midas cichlids especially. They need 75 gallons per fish though and I just don't have the means for that right now.

    Who knows what the future brings, but I know I do not want to go without atleast one dog in my lifetime.

    I don't currently have any interest in having any other animals.

    Definitly another dog.
    I've always loved birds, and grew up with parakeets and canaries. I would love to have birds again one of these days.

    I want to have a 75gallon Salt water aquarium some day, as well as many Livestock animals, I want pigs, cows, goats, horses, and a couple mini donkeys.
    I would love to add some birds indoors as well, definitely a parrot, and a few smaller birds. as well as a few lizards. I would love to have a ferret or two as well. Most of these animals wont happen until the kids are older.
    Maggie,

    I must be the only loser who planned this all out

    In the (hopefully) near future, I plan to get a Dobe, start my Peke kennel, more greys, 'zois, and maybe a Silken Windhound to top it off. As for birds, I've been longing for a Patagonian conure and a Greenwinged Macaw for the longest time. I've always like cats, but I honestly can't see myself with a pack of sighthounds, a large parrot, and cats. It'd be a disaster.

    It is nice to see I am not the only nut who thinks about this.
    Some of you picked animals I would never have guessed you would picked.

    Pets

    My daughter and I are extreme animal lovers. I would have more cats, bunnies and a dog but my husband says NO. It is a consent with us.

    small animal- I love rabbits and miss having them around. I imagin I'll have another one sometime.

    dog- GREAT DANES! I will have a dane someday! maybe another sibe if I can find a good show quality dark red male with brown eyes. Also many many more rescues!

    cat- I'm not a "cat person" but I adore my cat. I'm sure someday when PiddyBob passes, hopefully many years from now, I'll get another cat.

    bird- I'd LOVE to have a blue and gold macaw. Not any time soon, but someday.

    livestock- Quarter horse, pygmy goats, I think chickens would be in this catagory too. I'd like to have a couple more Silkie hens.

    REST IN PEACE GRACIE. NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I DON'T MISS YOU.

    I have lot of things I might get but only a few for sures I will get no matter what some day.

    Fennec fox

    Goats

    chickens

    more bunnies

    red fox 98% sure my boyfriend wants one and baring some mirracle wont get one till were together so it'll likely mostly be mine

    if I put everything the list would be huge of wants :P I'm contemplating a lot for when my situation allows. But really wouldn't have tons

    Chinchilla is likely as they are a south amaerican animal for my program
    mara/patagonian cavy

    mongoose there are a couple species you can get but my state I'll need a special license so would be far off

    Armadillo is a strong maybe

    Wallabies and deer some day would be nice as I worked with them before and miss them the deer would need a special permit too.

    more tamanduas for sure, Pua needs a mate.

    Oh and I'd love a pied crow

    I'm thinking of getting a ferret then graduatiing to a Tayra. I wasn't sure about them but met a lady that had one and said it was just like having a giant ferret.

    I've had frogs before and might again and might try a simple herp like a leopard gecko someday.

    Not technically a pet, but I do hope to have a husband in the future

    I would love to have a dog at some point in my life. Right now I live in an apartment, and my work schedule is kind of lopsided, so I don't have a dog. But - when I get a house that is safe for a dog, and a schedule that allows me to provide appropriate care and luvvins and such, I might make a visit to the animal shelter and not come home without one. OR - sign up for one of those programs that allow you to adopt a greyhound that has retired from racing, teach him how to be a pet, and spoil him thoroughly. I have a friend who adopted one - she taught him how to sit on one particular sofa where she wanted him to know he can always rest or sleep, and how to let someone share the sofa with him. He also learned how to play with toys and how to request doggie treats. We friends learned how to interact with him and how to help him be a family member. What a great dog.

    On the other hand - I've always wanted a couple of kitties together. Cats can function a little more independently than a dog can.
