Charlie wants a dog

At least I think he wants a dog. He's been talking about it, but he is also imitating Verruca Salt as he does so. "Mommy.' He says, speaking in a clipped and almost British voice. "I Want. A. Dog."

I pointed out to him he has $95, and could possibly buy a dog for himself, and he actually considered it.

I'd toyed with the idea before, but I just don't think we have the time or money for a dog. (though, working 10 minutes from home does help - one could theoretically go home at lunch and let the dog out)

I have to keep reminding myself that dogs are fairly high maintenance, and probably aren't cheap to keep in food.

Because...look at this really cute dog. I want him.

Shihapoo? That has to win for silliest dog name ever. :)

I'm not a big fan of little dogs. If I get a dog I want it to be a dog sized dog.

Interesting about the chow. Good thing to keep in mind. Labs are probably my favorite. They are so good natured.

Yeah, his dog was a shihtuz/poodle mix.

She's cute!

yeah, I spelled Shihtzu wrong.

Happy Turkey Day too.
