Had a cat when I was a kid.
I want to get a dog now, but randomly see a pet store: give me 10 billion dollars for this puppy. fuckthat.jpg i'm going to adopt an ugly abused motherfucker and save his life.
check adopting sites: give us some money too :yao:
I have no friends with pups or dogs that aren't neutered. I have money, but buying a dog seems strange to me.
Back to childhood, we used to take care of the street dogs, go underneath buildings still in construction where they'd give birth and feed the mother and the puppies, and when the pups came of a certain age when they didn't need their mother, take them home and still take care of their mother.

Paying for the animal shelter to take a dog of them allows them to bring in more dogs off the streets. I'm not sure what it's like over here but where I live they can't accept any more stray animals and can barely afford to keep euthanizing them, let alone take in more. Go get a rescue dog if the money isn't the issue.

It might rescue you when the time comes and you have a heart attack after watching one of Mancini's gems

I understand the money issue, but I think no one should make a profit selling domesticated pets. There should be government funds made available to the adopting companies (if they don't get money from the gov to begin with). Besides, here in Canada at least, adopt a 10+ year old pet, you pay around $200. Adopt anything younger than 3, especially puppies, they ask for over 400

It's not a profit that these shelters are making. The vast majority of the workers are just volunteers. Recently the 10k needed to support the place for another year has gone towards an arthouse cinema being built :pokerface:

The fuck? I dont get it, why would you pay to adopt pets?

They should pay you instead to encourage people to adopt pets and limit the stray animals phenomenon.

I have had much more time lately with my parents dog which soon will be 10 years old. The conclusion is that time flies away too fast as it feels like it was yesterday I met this wonderful being the first time.

I will personally never have a dog due to the limitations it also gives you but damn this dog has given me so many great memories. Go for it Armes if you really want it and if you have the necessary time to care and be its best friend.

I've always wanted a pet, specifically a dog, but I also thought it's too much of a hassle to take care of . I guess right now I'm satisfied with looking at gifs of them being stupidly funny or extremely cute.

I thought being Scottish already meant you are 99% of the time.

it is bearable after drinking. Maybe i should just be drunk 100% of the time and get a cat

My cat generally runs away from me when I try to annoy her when I'm pissed, yet every morning when I'm hungover she's there lying on my bed. Judgmental little shit.

Sadly their dog had to be euthanized now a month after I wrote this. :`(

Life is fucking short. Have you decided what to do Armes?

Sorry man, it sucks.

I decided to get a dog today, I hope it works out with the cats, he is only 4 months old so in time they should get along, or so I was told.
