Ugh! Owners still have all six pups and have lowered the price to less than half. I am haunted with the thought of what will happen to that one little girl. I GOT A PAY RAISE and tomorrow's my wedding anniversary. So, I sent an email that I want the little girl, if he'll still let me get her.
We were in Wal-Mart yesterday (getting potting soil and humus) and I almost get her a doggie bed, but Hubby said to wait. I have a big wire crate that I can use to get her trained. I'M EXCITED - I know we'll need to be extra cautious with her and the little doggies, but that will come naturally since I'm the biggest worry wart out there. I'll have her spayed ASAP and keep her busy. I've been reading lots. We'll see - the owners might not want me to have her since I was so iffey before. I hope he understands that it was because of the storm expenses.

My parents have a weimereiner which is definitely a high prey breed. We already had logan when they got her as a puppy so she grew up with him. they play fine. She's a little rough, but is getting better as she ages. I just watch very close, but lately there hasn't been much to worry about. They fight with each other to get attention from people. I'm sure she'll be fine with your little ones.

THANKS - "Hopefully" I'm getting her tomorrow. It's our anniversary, so I'm hoping Hubby will drive me the hour and a half and find a place to eat out along the way. He's from the area where the puppy is, so it should work out well.

Rats!!! The guy's wife sold the pup yesterday. Supposedly, she thought I was taking a boy. So, it wasn't meant to be. I'm a little sad, but it OK.

He said he should have more in 6 months, but I'm out of the mood right now!

One of our next door neighbors has what looks like a pit bull puppy in an open kennel/dog run, in his backyard. It barked most of the night last. I'll be calling him if it starts up again tonight. He had his one free night.
I'm so afraid of those dogs and crazy with fear that they will maul my g-babies or doggies. To add to my anxiety, he (a young single guy) hasn't cleared the tree that Ike dropped on his fence. We only have a small fenced area for my doggies (20'x20'). So, if the dog gets out of that kennel, most of my yard is open hunting.
