If you scroll over the pictures of the available babies, it will tell you if there is a hold on them or not. Not many options left, but they all look adorable and I found the site to be extremly informative about the care and background of them. I have only ever had dogs, cats, and two flying squirrels so it's a whole new ball game if I was to ever go down that road.
If you get one, could ya keep me updated? I am really curious as to what it entails to have one.

I was flat out told NO.:bawl: Even my puppy eyes didn't work. I got told Christmas shopping is done. I threatened to get the kids involved, the girls have daddy wrapped, and he looked at me like don't you dare... I may wait a little while. I don't think he could handle 3 dogs, 2 cats (a 17yr old biatchy one at that) 2 fish, and two kids. I work two jobs so he is Mr. Mom right now and I don't want to get on his bad side if I was to just randomly show up with a *new* addition, ya know.

Haha. We have mutually decided that a dog has to pass before we get another one, and even then it is going to be a while before we do. And he gets to pick, since I picked the most recent addition...damn fairness crap. I want a rott, GS, or pit and I have managed to curve his view points on the pits by watching Pitbulls and Paroles and not to mention a co-worker has one... But he wants a Dobie which I am not against since I grew up around one.
I may bring up the pig just to see his reaction, although he has mentioned a goat... Oh oh oh, maybe a VDay present. That would go over real well :whistle:

I asked for a Great Dane for My Birthday (Tomorrow) or Christmas. I was told NO he didn't want a horse in the house. :killingme

Tell him you want to put the pig in a tutu. That put SO over the edge, I think. :killingme

My co-worker is getting one for the family for christmas. I saw pictures yesterday. OMG! SO said he wasnt too thrilled with the idea of a dog that can get to be as big as him. Although. I love Mastiff's.

He actually has a pretty good imagination, and would basically tell me if I wanted to he would sit back and watch me try...which could get interesting chasing a pig around. Oh wow the mental image I just got of me chasing a pig around our field. My office mates are looking at me funny now...:ohwell:

That's what I was thinking, I want to know if someone was to try and harm me or our kids if SO was on travel or away, I would have a pretty doggie that would get in between. Not to mention, make a great cuddle buddy!

MK convinced the husband of one of my bff's to help him build a chicken coop. :thewave: I want chickens!!! No more inside pets. If any of you have fish and want some supplies, the drain thing, extra filter, etc I have a bunch of crap you can have.

Hmm... we have a fish tank already, but one kids fish loves to kill any fish we put in it. Not sure how it does it because there are no bitemarks, but after about a week, the new fish dies. And we have even gotten the recommended buddies for it. So the other kid has a beta in a seperate tank. Now they want a turtle after I said no more fish once these die (or I *accidentally* dispose of the killer when I change the water)

I did that when I got the pictures of our youngest after she was born. We hadn't definitively decided if we were getting another dog or not. My co-worker created a website and every week or two I would send him new pictures and after a month he gave in... He tries to do that now, but goes to puppyfind.com while he is sitting next to me on the couch. I want a white Husky and he wants a red...
