I put myself on the list for a Border/Staffie this morning. I've wanted one since I saw Whisper, Scott's B/S, and it just kind of fell into place. 5 dogs. Wow. It looks like I'll be heading up to Canada mid-December to pick up a puppy. She'll be a mid-winter gift to myself!

Foolish, mentally deranged person. :p

Nah, You are not stupid, Dawn, nor are You foolish. You simply have a great big heart that wants to share its love for dogs and will not be denied.

Clearly!!

I still think the stupidly foolish part is debatable. :p

I say YOU make the mortgage payments, therefor YOU make the rules (unless your town sets limits on the number of dogs, and makes you move to N.H. and buy a farm). Congrats !

Considering I'm trying to get Tweak in for a herding lesson, that farm may be a reality sooner than I thought! lol

Are you less angry at your sweet boy today? :)
