exactly she's a mix.

id like to add the fact that adopting animals isn't always a great solution. I adopted a mini ausie and no one told me she had jealousy problems with male humans. My bf and I live together and she would growl and bite him if he tried to touch me. I found a place who takes rescues but found out she ran away and was never found. That being said when I get a place with some acreage soon I will be buying a purebred corgi puppy.

That's why I would never adopt a dog without doing research first on the history. My dog was a stray so we didn't know his complete history but we knew that he was good with all humans' date=' dogs, and cats. We did come across that he has anxiety problems but nothing that couldn't be fixed with some meds from the vet. I think purebred pits are beautiful too but we can agree to disagree...however most pitbulls that you see on the street or in a pound are not purebreds . I just think someone who complains about the overpopulation of dogs would be the last person to shop at a breeder or worse a pet store

We got our chihuahua after she was found at a busy intersection, untagged and unchipped. We had no idea about her background at all, not even her age. Best we could determine with the vet, she was around 2 or 3, but was in good health. Assuming she was someone's pet, but we never found the owner :( On the other hand though, she ended up with us (through a chain of friends and family) and has been a perfect fit in our home and exactly the pet my kids needed!! :) We gambled and won on her!

there are no purebred corgis in pounds and I'm not adopting another rescue. I want a pembroke welsh puppy. I want to be the one to train it . Maybe when I'm old but for my first dog I'm deffinetly getting a puppy of my choice. Also there isn't a overpopulation of corgis otherwise I would consider.

That's fine but when you say you dont like pitbulls because they are ugly and there are too many of them its offensive. Getting a dog shouldnt be about how it looks. I guess its just me because I never understood the whole necessity of getting a certain breed. I would just say to go to a reputable breeder not a dog store.

Ok I just read all the new posts here and I must day I am finding it very disturbing!

This change if topics, about your dogs, hedgehogs and other furry things...

What about FISH??? (and coral they are pets too)

I'm feeling like there is some discrimination going on here.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
