It just seems like so much work having something living dependent on you.

If you truly love something then it won't feel like work.

That's true in a way but it's pressure either way because you're responsible for its well-being.Krazy_Kirby posted...
you can always get a hot dog.

I'm vegetarian : (

now that i Live in alaska, I wanted to get a wolf hybrid/husky or something. but I can't take care of a dog in my tiny apartment. if I lived in a house I would get a whole pack of dogs and I would train them to walk beside me without a lease on walks. people that saw us would be amazed. it would be like a roaming pack of wolves

That's a nice dream

Yeah dogs take some work but you get great companionship back from them

Some breeds are require less maintenance than others


Yeah, maybe if I could get a real lazy dog who didn't bark and listened well I could kind of manage it but as soon as I'd get a dog that was ill-behaved I don't know how I'd be able to handle that. I know how to train but that's a lot of stress to have a dog that could get itself or someone else in danger or something like that...

> Train it to do the housework while you're at work and cook your meals that or just get a partner.

Both seem equally unlikely, lol...

had a jack Russell/corgi mix that I did the research on (was looking for a jack Russell puppy), found a breeder, and paid for myself (though my dad took me). for 11 years we had many adventures with ups and downs along the way, but cancer took her from me last year

if you want a dog, then get a dog. just do the homework and research on whichever breed suits you best. and sure, buying from a breeder is usually smart (and can be pretty expensive), but give adoption a chance, take a look at your local spca/shelter, you just might find the right "fit" for you, or it may find you (it happened to me)

Aw, that's nice. That's another thing that must be so devastating, being so connected to an animal and having it die. Sorry that happened : ( I do want one but I just don't know how to tell if I'd be able to handle it and I'm afraid what would happen if I couldn't

Anything that is in a glass inclosure is a waste of space. There's a reason you don't want it free roaming your home. This includes fish.


Lol yeah I definitely don't want spiders or fish or snakes. I could potentially like a rat, I think they're kind of cute but don't know if that would be wortth it because it wouldn't be the same kind of bond
