There was noway we could manage it but it still hurt to say no. #2 SS lived for horses, every spare minute was spent at the stables. Then one day he didn't go and just like that the horse phase was over.coral-seashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08876196936807771078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24975998.post-59348255319752460332009-07-20T09:45:23.040-05:002009-07-20T09:45:23.040-05:00What comraderie between man and beast!

I can guarantee after 3 kids, 6 grandkids and more dogs then you can name that the dog eventually becomes Mom & Dads. Not saying he shouldn't have one but with your allergies you should probably just visit. Our oldest son is like that with cats. An emergency visit after being around one too long.<br /><br />After our last dog went to doggie heaven and we were just retiring we said that is it and life really is simpler. Now the kids are all married and except for the cat allergy guy the other 2 all have dogs, one even has 2 collies.<br /><br />Hugs<br /><br />FredaBFredaBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08000510495713705938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24975998.post-11655683410867875372009-07-17T03:42:04.630-05:002009-07-17T03:42:04.630-05:00I love my cat dearly.

BUT...I won't be in a hurry to get a new one when she's gone. They do tie you down and you never know for how long. And a dog is even more of a "tie-er downer" if that is a word (well, I know it isn't a word but I hope you know what I mean). Jack (and you) are lucky to have the opportunity to have the friendship of these dogs. And even the love shared. But you don't have to go there permanently. That's what makes dog (and/or cat) sitting so great!Wandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08987178371117192422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24975998.post-22441521912918802292009-07-16T21:37:22.670-05:002009-07-16T21:37:22.670-05:00Hi,

Sigh... <br /><br />And yes, out allergist says that no dog or cat is completely non-allergic. Sigh... Sigh...<br /><br />And once you get a dog or cat, the kids eventually go off to college and it becomes your dog or cat. <br /><br />So far, I'm successfully resiting as I ask the kids which parent are you willing to give up to have a pet. So far they have chosen the parents over a pet though at times it's been a close call! :-)<br /><br />Love the pictures of Jack and the dogs!<br /><br />Cynthia<br />Windy MeadowCynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16815507581216920872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24975998.post-60022191351318750762009-07-16T15:16:57.212-05:002009-07-16T15:16:57.212-05:00Looks like both Jack AND the dogs are having a gre...Looks like both Jack AND the dogs are having a great week.

We have 3 dogs now. BIG dogs. German Shepherd/Rotwiler mix brothers and Jack my best baby who is a Box-a-dor (boxer/lab mix). I am holding off getting new carpet because of the dogs. We don't go on vacation because of the dogs. I live with a vacuum in my hand and a clothes brush because of the dogs.<br /><br />Just wanted you to know there IS a down side. I, however, don't care. I cannot live without a dog.<br /><br />So, anyway, one of the ways I can tell my boys are great is that they are kind to old people and animals. From the look of the pics, you are on the right track.<br /><br />XOXOX<br />CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24975998.post-53203797012142862092009-07-16T11:51:12.042-05:002009-07-16T11:51:12.042-05:00Great photos capturing the lazy days...Oh, come on...Great photos capturing the lazy days...Oh, come on Mom!!!
