So we are looking for a new dog. I'm looking at the humane society website an found two adorable puppies. Lab mixes. 2 months old. Already fixed. They are so cute I'd have to take both. Sigh. I have no will power when it comes to animals.

We have Jethro. This is to replace Scoobie. Not that he is replaceable but you know what I mean. Matt is taking Tripp when he moves out and Jethro needs a playmate.

I know what you mean. Yup.
I think it's awesome that you're looking at shelter dogs, Ramsey. Kudos to you!

I think people that buy purebred's are fucking stupid. 3⁄ 4 of them (I have no data to back this up; I'm just spewing what I think) come from people who get them from puppy mills. I had a friend who got a purebred Yorkie from a "nice lady who raises them herself with her darling mother". Immediate health problems and a deeper search on the dog's papers revealed it came from a puppy farm. Second time she's done that and she's all embarrassed and wants to keep it hush hush that SHE'S GETTING HER DOGS FROM PUPPY MILLS! Dumb ass.

I would never get a dog from a breeder. There are so many dogs and puppies in shelters that need homes. And I think mutts are better dogs.

Yeah. If I really wanted a particular breed, I'd go to a rescue site for that breed. There are rescue sites for chihuahuas, great danes...all kinds of dogs.

I'm not getting anymore dogs, they make too much of a fucking mess. My next pet is going to be a grumpy cat. I'm sure cats make a mess too, but I know they won't dig a hole to hell in my backyard and then track dirt all over the house.

I have a Grumpy cat. He's a Purebred Ragdoll. I won't defend my choice of getting him to anyone. There is an official grumpy cat all over the web.

No, Sally posted the pic of the cat.
This is my cat.
Not the best pic, but the most recent.

No, not really. Ragdolls are low shedders, and hypo-allergenic.
I lightly brush him once or twice a month.

That's a Persian and you don't want one. They are horrible shedders and extremely high maintenance.
