    I haven't really been doing much research but I just looked up a list of non-shedding dogs. I'm leaning toward a Norwich or Norfolk terrier. I'm still unsure though, because I don't want a dog that will annoy Sas.

    I really don't suggest a Terrier then :/

    Yeah, they may be too hyper. I was also thinking a schnauzer or a schnauzer mix, and maybe 5 years or older. Still playful, yet they know when it's enough. He seems perfect!

    I'm still not sure though. It could take me months or even years to convince them so we'll just have to wait. If I do get another addition, it will probably be a mutt.

    It took me 10 years. Blah :-/p

    And i saw an ad in the paper for a breed my dad mentioned he had when he was a kid. I seen that as my wedge to hold open the door... and it worked! Then when i finally seen what they were I about gagged. I'm a shepherd person and here was one of the ugliest pups i had ever seen... a four month old Rat Terrier. LOL. ..."Do you want it or NOT?!" "YES!!!!!!!" No way was i giving up the chance to have a dog. She was a challenge, but i loved having her around.

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

    Awwwwe, this one seems like a sweetie!

    Be careful though if you go looking for Schnauzers. Too often they become habitual barkers. I seen so many people bring them in to obedience class for that very problem. I've heard many people at dog parks asking advice because of that very issue. If you get your heart set on them, learn how to deal with this issue before you adopt one. It's easier to break a habit you've never started

    Trust me, we are VERY used to the barking from the white little monster. If someone comes over, after they leave she will bark and bark for hours until she knows its OK. So, barking shouldn't be a problem for me or my family.
