I’m really aching for a big dog. Especially now that we have a HUGE, fenced backyard. We took a trip to the pound today to see what kind of pups they had. Suprisingly they only had a few pups and they were all shepherd mixes. After doing some research and thinking, we (mainly I) have decided on a boxer. My mom grew up with one and it was a great dog that she still speaks of fondly. And from what I read about the breed they are a really great, low-mantience, family dog. So now in order for us to be able to have one, our incontinent persian must go. I’m really attached to her, but it just isn’t right to have an incontinent animal that must stay in the house. We think she may have a medical problem. She might start using the litterbox when we get her on some meds, but there’s just no telling for sure.
