I don't have a dog, unfortunately, though my husband does (but, it's really his dog). I am in the mood for a puppy, once I get good and healthy and have more energy. I need to do that before the husband's dog bites the dust, as my husband and dogs seem to have some sort of weird mind-meld or something. I'm also going to have to ask him to act a little less
dominant.
I do have my kiddo's dog, who's my favorite dog I ever met. She's super cool, he adopted her the day before she was due to be euthanized, and she was a homeless person's dog and she's So Sweet when her PTSD is not activated, LOL. I adore her because she's super smart, very precious, and I know she'd die for the kid if necessary, in fact we share a lot in common, she used to come smoke with me in the Arizona room back when I was smoking (and the kid's back was turned) but I think she enjoys
vape Scents. Any time I arrive she jumps on top of me, licks my ears, then sneezes in my face, it's something of a ritual, and she definitely has a home with me if anything ever happens (oh, I hope not) but this dog is really special to me, and her manners have consistently improved over time, but she'd still chomp your arm off under the right circumstances. She is very clever and crafty, and I don't know why but having had so many pets with the kid... I have come to love dogs. Definitely time to adopt a puppy, as I have found, over the years with the kid, that adult rescue pets are a lot more difficult and I'll admit I want to behaviorally train my dog like crazy, but I'd like a fairly clean slate to start with. Here she is: Snickers:
