Hello,
I have been ill for most of my life, and a few years ago I started doing some research on the Chi, I even found a meet up group for them in my city. I decided that at that time I should put off looking for a dog because I was too sick.
Lately over the last couple of months I have been looking at some dogs online. With the support of my family I am looking into adding an addition to my home.
I grew up with cats, but now am allergic. I have never had a dog b4. I only used to walk my neighbors dog's as a child.
I am not the type to see a cute puppy & purchase him without any idea of the breed's history or any set up for him back at home. It once took me 2 years to find a pair of sneakers that would suit me. I have been told that there is nothing wrong with being a dog snob.
I am also not sure if I'd like to adopt an older dog, or buy a puppy/adult from a breeder.
I currently live in a smaller apartment in a city, and I run a few miles a day. The breeds I have my eye on:
-Short Coat Chihuahua, apple or doe head (I also have a breeder in mind, that I am not entirely sure she's legit)
Miniature American Eskimo
Bulldog
BullMastiff (not the best for a smaller apt)
Finnish Lapphund
Pomeranian
Toy Poodle?? (not sure)
Scottish Terrier
Silky Terrier?
Westie Terrier ( they always look like they're smiling to me)
Yorkie (not really big into them) Especially the *terriers* as I know they tend to be somewhat aggressive.
-Argentine Dogo's (maybe too aggressive for me)
-Pekingese (too stubborn?)
I also have some business idea's in mind that I've been working on bit by bit for the last couple of years around dogs. So I am hoping training & raising one would open up some other avenues there as well.
I have also been really interested in (I am not sure what they're called) but running/tricks competitions & meeting other like minded ppl. There is a volunteer organization in my city called: PetPals, where ppl with their pets (mostly dogs, go around to different facilities for a little *pet therapy*)
Anyways, that is just some of the things that I am interested in getting into if I decided to make a definite decision in buying a dog. Plus that they supply you with unconditional love.
That's all I can think to put for now, guess I can go check out the site now.
