I grew up on a bunch of land with tons of animals. I never felt if I bring this animal home my dad will kill me. We bred Jack Russell’s, Great Danes, and kitties. Even when we moved to the city we had 7 animals… + or -.  Now living with my wonderful husband, we have no animals and sometimes I enjoy it and sometimes… I wish we did. Being around them all my life and now none. I love the idea of being able to go out of town and not worrying who will take our dog or how much it will cost.. but then when you are coming home and hearing paws run across the floor excited you are walking through the door is such a good feeling. OH the pros and cons…
