What is your "Dream"?

[Lixx]

I want to have a "dog mall" It would include a vet with low cost spay/neuter and vaccinations, a rescue shetler, a food store, a bakery, an art store (with Amy as our featured artist?) a groomer, a dayschool, training, etc., etc., etc. Behind the mall, would be a huge dog park with a pond. The resuce dog would have access to it at times to help socailize them and so they would not be kenneled all the time.

That's very similar to my dream! Except I want it for all small animals. I want to open a pet supply store, with an adoption center, butcher/grocer (for BARF & other diets), vet, groomer, trainers. And outdoor area for playing, training, competitions. All kinds of things. And I hope to do this before I am 30 I'm just looking for the right location.

The dog mall idea sounds great! When I win the lotto, I'll be sure to buy the land for you. (oh..dream on Ashley)

I want to be able to make a living by training dogs. I want to teach my own classes, have a doggy daycare during the day and help train the more difficult shelter dogs. I also want to run a small rescue on the side..possibly a Sheltie or herding dog rescue. If I can't run a rescue, I'd like to at least actively foster dogs.

To be self employed, financially stable, with a home and acreage, the ability to travel freely, and, facilities to house animals. I'd like to have my own shop where I could sell pet supplies, help rescues and shelters adopt out pets, and, incorporate my photography into it somewhere. I'd love to have multiple cats, dogs, and, horses. A home on the beach, one in the city, one in the country. And, the ability to help people, family and friends especially. I'd love to be able to make it so my mother doesn't have to work.

I can't even begin to mention my dreams, for fear of feing put into a rubber room with a staight jacket, rocking in the corner.

Oh, you mean dreams and aspirations?? Well, THAT'S another story!!! :rollleyes:

I have a dream of being financially stable, lving on my own island with a huge house, full of windows, facing a blue ocean.

On the same island, a very large cottage (a kitty cottage, actually) also full of windows, sort of a kitty haven. Inside will be TONS of rooms with more windows for all the unwanted and abandoned, as well as feral cats and kittens. The rooms will have furniture to scratch, loft walkways up high, tons of cat trees, and individual catnip dispensers. The rooms will also have skylights for the sun to shine in.

There will be many cats in every room, to live out their final years in peace and harmony.

Moosmom, That sounds like a cats dream. Thats really great you care about them so much. It's nice to know that there are people who care about homeless cats.

I dream of owning my own business, preferably themed cottages, by some beautiful lake district in NZ, making them very unique, so that everyone wants to stay in them, and not outrageously priced, so the average person can afford them for a holiday.

Now for the over the top dream, is to own a castle on a hill with the moat and all, overlooking the ocean.

One alway's dreams of winning the lotto, a million or two would not go a miss, I can always dream of all the lovely kitties I can then own, with their own special huge outdoor area, all screened off , so no other cats can get in or out, with the most wonderful play area you can imagine.

Don't ya just love them dreams..!!!

[Ally Cat's Mommy]

My dream is that my hubby will cancel the Porsche he has ordered, so we can use the money for me to go back to Varsity full-time in September and get my MBA.

I would also like to be able to contribute more towards our shelter, and animal welfare in general - which I would hopefully be able to do as I would get a better-paid job after I have my MBA.

I also dream about fitting back into my wedding dress before my next wedding anniversary in November - which means losing 15KG!!!!!!!

[cloverfdx]

*Sigh* Where to begin

First off would be to settle down with my soul mate (She is out there somewhere) and to adopt/rescue needy dogs/ Border Collies.

And to help out Border Collie Rescue Australia, get back up and running as not much has been happening with them.

Buy my own little Ford Escort panel van and restore it to its former beauty, Paint it a pretty matalic megenta colour, have it lowered, Faux Fur lined interior. *Ahhhh keep on dreamin*

Live in the country with plenty of room for Clover and Elvis to run, play and swim. and have room so i can have another Border Collie.

And last but by no means least, buy a building for our dog club (Or just us Flyballers) so we can train in the middle of winter and in the summer when it is to hot. Also have day care, Heated Phsysio pool available. etc *Another i wish*


There is world peace, equal rights etc *I dont see that happening any time soon*

My dream is to have a baby (a human one). I love all my fur kids and they are very much my babies, but my heart longs for a human baby. That is my number 1 dream.

My complete dream is to have a house on 10 acres. 7 of those acres would be undeveloped. On the other 3 would sit my house, a barn and a bird house and a reptile house. I would be a stay at home mom, and take care of our 3 kids and our animals. I want to have a bird, reptile, and small animal rescue.

Truthfully? To have a world that doesn't discriminate for weight. I'm heavy and I hate that people think less of me for it (but thats a whole other thread) I want people to see that you are the same person, thick or thin. Its my biggest issue in my life... and know what? I'm far healthier than a lot of skinny people!

[dukedogsmom]

Me too, catnapper! And if you were/are thin, how would you know if the opposite sex liked you for you or because of how you looked. A lot of men are very shallow. I've learned that the hard way. I like hiding behind the beauty of my dog, because he's accepted a lot more than I am, at times. Maybe we should start another thread?

[catnapper]

LOL! I used to be thin. In fact, this weekend I finally gave in and threw out everything but one pair of jeans from my skinniest days.

I used to date a guy I call the "food Natzi" who counted my calories with every bite. I was the utmost skinniest with him, but I left his house and stopped off at Dunkin Donuts every night and ate 6 donuts on the ride home!!!! My weight was more of an issue to him than me.

[EssTer]

well, I'd love to own large house out of big cities....maybe near some lake..with stable for my andalusian and oldenburger horses. Maybe even riding school.. and of course I wanna pack of siberian huskies (and some merle aussies)... I'm not sure what colors I'd love to have those sibes, red&white and black&white would be great
