I passed up on this dog.... I got myself so stressed about it. I think that means I'm not ready.

I think the MAIN reason I want another dog is to keep Jackson company because I know he enjoys the company of another dog greatly. But I had to sit down and be like... that should not be the only reason to get a second dog. And it's not like Jackson doesn't live a good life or anything! lol. I mean we go to the dog park all the time and visit my dads dog, etc.

So... NO new dog post unfortunately and I'm going to get the second dog idea OUT of my head until at least the new year.

Btw, I've been really wanting to get insurance for Jackson as well. Just in case. I think it really would be worth it.



That's EXACTLY why I got so nervous. I really want Jackson to be happy for one, and myself of course. And I am trying to make the responsible decision and not just go and get a dog... I want to really be sure I'm making the *right* choice.

So, look back next year! I think I will be more ready then. In the mean time, I'll torture myself by researching breeders and viewing petfinder. :rolleyes:

You sound like one smart girl.:) You have so many years ahead of you for a second dog. As far as a playmate, like you said their are ways for Jackson to play with other dogs. You never know what may come in your life as you are so young.... a guy, marriage, children?! As you know a dog if you are lucky can live 20 years or more. Trust me you will one day have another dog and he or she will be one lucky little doggy!
