Getting a Dog

[MariaM]

Ahhh I see now what you were talking about, thanks for explaining! I really could not afford $40 every six weeks and my mom definately wouldn't want to take the dog, I don't blame her though.
And IF I ever get a dog, I would LOVE to train it! I was having fun with Oscar, my aunt and uncles dog. I tried to teach him a trick while I was there but I spose he might have been to old to learn quick since I was only there for a week. I probably could have taught him if I was there longer. Oscar is so loveable!! =D I don't know what you mean by not being home much. Maybe I'm not?? I go to school every weekday but I'm home after school. The only day I'm not is in Thursday but that should stop in May, and I probably won't have a dog by then =( My mom is home 24/7 though. Too bad she doesn't actually *want* a dog, but she might warm up to one like she did Oscar =) [We had to take care of him for a week in St. Louis last August] I did mostly everything but my mom fed him in the morning and let him out because she was always up earlier, I think she started to like him but she'll never admit it There aren't any dog parks in this town of 380 people, I don't think there are in Yorkton (25 minutes away) either... We do have the schoolground and another park though.
