I am on the look out for another dog. Lots of you know my lovely great dane Patsy was PTS in Jan and i have my old lady Scamp who is 16 left on her own. She is fine without canine company always has been, it is me who needs another.
I just feel like there is something missing when we are out walking, or cycling etc. I need another family friend who will come pretty much everywhere with us.
This time however no great dane as we just dont have the room in the car with 3 kids and all the bits they need, and for luggage when we go on holiday. So this time im thinking small to medium need only apply!
SO i came across this little beast.

i think he is gorgeous but is this a nightmare mix?? Two very intelligent breeds who can be very demanding.
Not exactly a kiddy friendly mix perhaps?
He currently lives out so would he be hard to house train? My little scamp came from kennels at the cat and dog home but was instantly clean in house so thinking might be worrying about nothing here. I am a worrier.:redface:
Any thougths???
At first my hubby was like 'no way dont you dare buy a dog when im not there'... then he saw the pic!!! He is like 'buy him now'!!
Hoping to meet him tmrw, plan to meet in park to see how he is with other dogs and then perhaps bring him to my parents to meet the kids and see how he seems. I think i am doggy enough to be able to judge hias character reasonabley well. You know how you can usually just tell in their eyes.
