Default getting a dog

I am so excited. So I got the go ahead from my apartment complex that I can get a dog. I've been wanting one for sooo long. So I found a rescue place that has 3 pups of a breed I really like. So I should be taking one home in the next week or so. I don't want a big dog because being in a town house isn't the right place for a large dog. So I will be getting a blue heeler. Some people refer to them as Australian cattle dogs. Here are a few pics of what they look like.

This one is a puppy.

The 3 they have are about 5 mo old. Here are some pics of adult ones. They get to be about 30-40lbs

LMFAO... Dogs can be a royal PITA, but they are more loyal than any human friend.

SUCH beautiful, smart and loyal dogs. Just make sure he gets enough exercise. Long walks, frisbee in the park, etc. They can get a little 'nutty' if left to their own devices.

Those dogs are cool. Its good to have a dog, and I love dogs, but if my wife wasn't allergic to cats that would be my preference. I absolutely love cats. Hmmmm maybe I was a cat before I was Mr Clean. After all they are always....well......cleaning.

Here is our new puppy, he is a golden-doodle named Oliver. He is going on 10 weeks old now. We have had him for 3 weeks and he is very good. No shedding, no smell, very trainable, intelligent, and cute.
