Darn it.

So, because Page was being rather obstinate and... aggravating this afternoon, I looked up some info on how to deal with ADHD kids (not being brave enough to look up ODD management). One piece of advice was to get a pet. Sooooo... I found myself here, looking around. And then I clicked on the schnoodle link.

Damn. Damn, damn, damn, damn, damn.

I want one. (Especially that wee little gray pup. OMG! THE CUTENESS! IT KILLZEZ ME!!!)

Obviously, we are not in ANY position to get a dog any time soon. First of all, we can't afford one. Second, we travel way, way too much (and usually by plane to international locales) for such a family-oriented dog. Third, we'd have to either redo the floors here or move (preferably the latter) because any dog is going to scratch the shit out of these laminate floors just walking around. And fourth... Well, I figure it would be good to have some obedience and consistency training for ourselves before we bring a dog with a good memory into the mix.

But, boy do I want one.

Ach well. I suppose I'll just have to get a soft toy version of one to cuddle.

The expense, the travel, the time. Not to mention the walkies complete with plastic bag for dog doo. But they sure are cute.

Yes, I know. *pouts*

It's a shame you can't have some sort of pet. Having her own pet has made a huge difference to #1.

Yeah. I've promised page we'll look at (small) aquariums at the start of school next year, so he can get a gold fish or betta or something. I've told him that HE will be responsible for it, though. (Better make it a gold fish. I'd feel bad letting a betta die.)
