Ok...here goes. As some of you may know I have been wanting to get a female dog for a companion for Lucky (not for breeding, pet only) & had planned on waiting until March because I was going out of town for awhile to visit my parents. Well....I came across a great buy on a female dog from a friend that can't keep her. She is half the price that I had planned on spending, so I like that!
And she is very cute & registered with the ACA & has all her shots including rabies. She is 5 months old (born Aug 22nd).
Here's the problem. My mom was ok w/ me bringing 1 dog, myself, & my child to her house, but know that I told her I might be bringing another dog she is kinda pissed. She is more frustrated because she already has 3 cats & 1 dog in her house. She just doesn't want it to be chaotic & just wants to spend time w/ me & her granddaughter & not worry about animals. So I don't know what to do because I don't want to upset my mom. She told me it was ok if I brought them but the tone of her voice was more strained like I really don't like it but that's the only way she will get to see us, is if I bring the dogs. So I don't know what to do. I don't have anybody here that can watch them while I'm gone so that isn't an option. I just don't want my mom put out w/ me for bringing 2 dogs. Because awhile back when I 1st got Lucky I took him down there & he wasn't potty trained & that upset her alot! Well this time I told her that he would be in belly bands just in case & I would put the female in diapers.
So, does anybody have any suggestions? I really want to get this dog but don't want to upset my mom. The person doesn't want to hold the dog much longer because they need the $, so if I don't act know I won't get her.
Sorry so long.
