    Greyhound. Isis (my Siamese) runs away from things that are bothering her and I don't want that to trip the pups prey drive.

    My favs are: (in order)
    Rottie
    Pit
    Lab

    but with 7 cats I don't think it's really an option for me to get any of them. I guess I'll just settle with cuddling other people's dogs when they bring them to the hospital. Besides that way I don't have to walk them at 3am during a thunderstorm. lol

    If you mean cause they might now get along etc that could be wrong. I have 5 (which is close to 7) and when we got the cats we had my rb Thunder and now we have Rockee. Thunder was a big Shepherd/Golden and Rockee a Lab/Pit who actually hated and still hates outside cats.

    I love many many breeds but out of the ones I personally want to have....

    the one most likely to never have is a Borzoi but that´s because you can´t find one locally and importing is way too much $$$.....

    others I could own at some point....

    I sooooo want a Bull Terrier and a Pom..... besides my all time huskies of course!!

    Honestly I think most terriers I would not do well with except for mini schnazers. I LOVE bull terriers but I think they are way to much dog for me.

    I would love to own a aussie in the future, but at the moment I don't think a aussie is right for me.
    Thanks so much Ashley for the siggy!

    Great Pyrenees. Love them, but they really need livestock to work to be truly happy.

    Part of it is they wouldn't get along. Bear and Pooky would probably be ok with a dog. Jack is the problem child. When he was still an outside stray he would hide if he even saw a dog walking all the way down the street. I once had been given an unpainted cement statue of a schnauser (sp?) and Jack would no longer go on leash walks in the back yard. When I tried to show him it was cement he would arch up, puff up his fur, growl and hiss. I finally had to get rid of the statue so he would go for walks again. lol

    The other part is I have just enough room in the house for me, hubby and the kitties. There simply isn't room for a large dog, and I'd rather any dog I get be a house dog, not an outside dog.
