Why?

    • Gold Top Dog
    I know... I dont mind the shedding one bit, its my dad...[8|]
     
    I sooo know they are worth it.  I am dreading the conversation topic with everyone tonight... yikes. 
     
    LOL maybe I just talk to DH, I know he wont be too hard to convince, and well go check her out when we can and if we want her just get her and come home with a "surprise" for them!!  heehee...  Naw, I cant do that.
     
    I see no one wants to talk me out of this, huh?  Sighhh. [:)]
     
    I already feel like I need to hurry so no one else gets her I would be very upset!

    Now why would we want to talk you out of not getting another dog??[:D] Come on one is never enough and think of poor Bailey she needs a playmate. Talk to the easiest person in the house that would want another pupper then work to the hardest.
     
    Remember if she is a sheds it's just her way of showing her love for you. That's how it is in our house.[;)]

    Amy, you're talking to the wrong people if you're looking for someone to talk you out of getting another dog. ~L~
     
    OMG! Kelly, if I weren't a full house already, I'd be seriously looking @ that young lady.  She looks like a sweetheart.

    Sally is such a cutie! Im sure when you get her your pops will fall in love with her. My father is the same way but when he thinks no one is looking he is over there with the dogs talking  that baby talk too.. And like I said how could you not fall in love with a face like that any ways!!!

    Well DH hasnt seen her yet, we were out last night then up at 3:30 for a fishing trip, and just got back a few hours ago and hes still sleeping... I did tell him about her and he said Im crazy and he doesnt think he wants one right now, BUT, he hasnt SEEN her yet.  I mentioned it to my mom who was the easiest and I showed her and there wasnt much she could say, hehe.  My dad was like NO WAY!  and especially when I mentioned what kind (Iguess the big dog thing is too much to handle) he was really like NO WAY!  But, I need to show DH and keep working this....
     
    She is SO sweet looking, those eyes just talk to me - I NEED HER!  Dont worry guys, Im workin on it, and Im not giving up till shes here... even if they all say OK OK! just to get me to shut up about it[:)].... heh, whatever works!
     
    Cant wait...[&o]

    DH is NOT going for it....  in fact I am shocked at his reaction.  [:(]
     
    I got all mad and said so you dont even care that I want it, its just whatever YOU want, he says I do care but I said no...?  Whaa?   I cant help feeling like if he can go "well I say no" then why cant I say "WELL I SAID YES!"... Im so mad right now.

     Sorry to hear your DH isn't wanting another dog .[:o]  I never thought arguing solved anything so I don't recommend the approach you suggested; however, we do have our" feminine wiles"; you could make his favorite dinner and do some sweet talking about how hard he works and other flattering things and reintroduce the subject after that. Maybe you could work out a compromise; if he agrees to the puppy you'll let him have something he's been wanting. Good luck; we have a Shepherd mix and she is such a sweetheart and very smart

    Well, I dont agrue much at all, and I didnt approach it like that it just ended up like that because it was just NO, no matter what I said.  I got more offended that I was being told NO like that than anything... like at least talk to me about it or something or ACT like you care about what I want.  I dunno, I guess I was just expecting something different.  Were not fighting or anything dont get me wrong, in fact we are about to go to dinner, but I am just sad and surprised at his answer.  I dont see why we shouldnt get her.
    He says shes gonna get big [8|].... yeah and?

    in response to the shedding thing, emma is a gsd mix and she doesnt really shed all that badly.  sure she does shed some and it gets on my clothes but its not the kind of shedding thats unbearable.  jake sheds about the same. 
     
    btw, petfinders is where i found jake!   i dont go there anymore hehe

    Good luck with DH.

     
    What is DH??
    • Gold Top Dog
    i asked the same question and i was told it means dear husband. ?
    • Gold Top Dog
    Lol i don't know for sure but I just fig it ment Damn Husband? Guess it could mean  both of them, depending on what you are talking about lol...

    i asked the same question and i was told it means dear husband. ?
    • Gold Top Dog
       I always thought it meant "darling" husband but "dear" husband is probably the right choice. By the way, I don't know what LOL means; does it mean" lots of luck"?

      I see your point; maybe it just caught him completely off guard unless he knew that you were thinking of getting another dog. I hope you're able to convince him that getting the dog would be a good idea; she does have the sweetest face.
