Thanks.
Too much, I've been told lol. I have own four, Princess (mix), Princess (dachshund) (i will tell you about the names lol), Pepe (bichon frise), and Valentino (Princess' puppy)
My sister owns Lucky and Honey who are shih tzus, and Hockey (one of princess' pups). Lucky & Honey stay with my sister, and Hockey is currently still in my house.
Princess other puppies, Louie is owned by my friend, and Coco is owned by my sister's coworker.
Here's Coco, I haven't had her posted in this thread.
It was an oops litter, the father is my sister's Lucky. Who she refuses to get s/n to her shih tzus, as she plans to breed them, ugh.
Both Princess' are unaltered and are going to be altered in May. Pepe is altered. All puppies owenrs (even my sister) agreed to get them s/n.
My sister REFUSES I change Princess (the mix) name, because its on ''her papers''. And to tell her otherwise is a pain in the arse. I had the doxie first, and then came along Princess [who was suppose to be my sister's, but she didn't take on the responsibility] But I call her Mama most the time. The doxie sometimes I call Pre Pre, and Prenup, lol it grew on from pre pre...and just replaces the other pre with nup. I occasionally call her Princess, but the way I sound out the doxie's name is more high pitch, so they know when I'm refering to whom. I would just change her name to Mama, but I'm too lazy to change, picture titles, youtube videos, ect...its way to much! And well they know their name, that's all that matters, as long as they're not confused, but I confuse the heck out of people lol.
But to answer your question I have four lol. Currently five, but I OWN four. Sometimes I'll have my sister's dogs over, and when the pups were here it was NINE, because I had my sister's shih tzus with me, the four pups, and my three while she was looking for a new home (was in an apartment which didn't allow dogs, and the complex found out, why she got dogs, no clue).
It was also originally six pups, but two didn't make it
And it was then 10 also, because I had my Didi, but she had to pts. 6 pups, four dogs I own, my sister's 2 dogs.
How did I get to so many? I really only wanted two dogs. Didi I had since the sixth grade, she was given up by an elderly lady who no longer could take care of her. Got a shih tzu [off the streets, wandering] named Lucky, but sadly got ran over by a car. Mom got Pepe from the HS, to replace Lucky. Went to get my sister's 2nd shih tzu at the pet store, someone was looking for a home for the doxie. I couldn't say no. Sister had someone who was looking for a home to their dog who lived its life outside. She said she couldn't stay at her house, because Lucky [her shih tzu] wouldn't leave her alone, but he's a pest to every dog. Under my household, he ISN'T allowed to pester anyone. She allowed it to happen and did nothing to stop it, but he never bothers her here, because I simply DON'T allow it. And then an oops litter, and I didn't want these dogs to end up in shetlers, so I kept one [he also grew on me], my sister kept one, and the other two to homes where I can keep a close eye on them and get updates, things of that sort. But later on when my numbers decrease [dogs' pass on] I would like my number of dogs to go back to two, lol, if it wasn't for my city's dog limit to be four, who knows, I'm a sucker for dogs in need of homes!
If I can get my number one day back to one dog, I would like to rescue a bull terrier, thats just one breed I've always wanted to own.
The breeds I have now, I never intended to own any. But after I could own a bt, I would go back to getting whatever breed of dog comes my way like I have.
