I like dogs but...

[james_gsx]

So at the old age of 19 (20 next month) I'm still living at home. For some reason I thought buying myself a Mercedes-Benz was cooler than my own apartment.

Well a few months ago my mom came home with a dog, totally random. No big deal, I like dogs and my old dog died back in January (She was 17, I had her since I was 5). Moving forward to 4 weeks ago, ANOTHER dog shows up and again my mom just runs out and buys the dog without consulting anyone. After being slightly irritated I got over it and now I like the dog.

Today comes around, and I got home rather early since I decided not to go to the CU vs FSU game in Boulder. I played a hard game of Basketball at the CU recreation center then drove home and immediately flopped on the couch, turned on the 65" tv and waited patiently for the Nebraska vs USC game. Right about the end of the 1st quarter I heard the garage door open, but it took a while for everyone to come inside - I really didn't think anything of it.

I heard the door open and turned around to say hi, only to see this white dog come into the house. I was a little shocked, and thought maybe they found him on the street and took him home while they found the owner. I was wrong, she went out again and bought a 3rd dog. Now there are 4 animals in my house, and it's getting slightly annoying.

I like dogs, but I don't want three of them. She might as well go out and start up a kennel if she's so obsessed with puppies. I like the dog a lot though, he's smart and doesn't take shit from the jackass dog we have. He reminds me a lot of my first dog, not very into playing around but will always hold his own.

10 million dogs and cats a year are euthanized in the U.S. If your Mom truly is an animal lover tell her to get all of her future pets from a shelter and not some breeder or pet store.

The question is if it's really animal love or other forces at work here.

Great post James... now you have to watch they dont scratch the mercedez ¡¡ I have three cats in here... they give us work ... but they give back love ¡¡ cheers Walter.

I like the dog, he's pretty cool and it's nice to have a calm one around.

He would have been sent to the pound to be put to sleep, so I'm thankful my mom picked him up when she did.

I want to get a Dobermann soon. I love Dobes great dogs. Was going to get Rottweiler but it'll eat way too much.

Did you ask your mum why she got so many dogs. Does she want them for the company or does she just want to save em from the shelter?

LoL nah mate I'll show him who's boss early on. I love these big dog breeds. I can't stand seeing guys with a little dog like a Chihuahua on a lead it drives me insane. American Staffies are also nice.
