I agree , and having 4 dogs is ALOT. lol.
I used to say i would never have more than 2 dogs. But working at a veterinary clinic you come across sooo many things in need.
I only went out looking for the jack russel/ rat terrier. I went and picked him out.
Then i was given the yorkie
THen i bottle fed the whole litter of puggle mixes, and i even gave them all away.
Then Graham was brought back to me cause the owner had major health issue come up and when he came back to me i couldnt let him go again.
THen i fostered and found homes for LOTS of puppies and old dogs and kittens. ANd went a couple years and said there was NO WAY I WOULD HAVE MORE THAN 3 dogs, lol
Then along came Wilson the black lab puppy, i agreed to foster, and after a month, we knew he wasnt leaving.
I think from all the fostering i have done, and bottle feeding, now that my dogs are adults, they are so easy.
Now if i take on a puppy or kitten that needs bottle fed, it reminds me of why i dont want a puppy or kitten lol.
My dogs all are in a perfect routine, and all get along great. They are all boys, and life is easy.
We have no kids , so they are definatly like my children.
And although i said i would never have more than 2, i would never trade any of them for anything in the world.
