Hi guys.... We are not "breed-specific", just looking for a doggie that not only fits with us, and our lifestyle, but that we fit with him/her too!!
I've been "trolling" petfinder, registered with Boxer rescue and Bulldog rescue, our local SPCAs know us (we are supporting members, and make trips at least once a month with toys, treats, blankets etc... As an aside... everytime we pick up something for our puppy Sheriff, we also get soemthing to take to the shelter, so at the end of every month we do "shelter rounds" without having to outlay a lot of $$)
We live in townhouse/condo, that won't be fenced in till the spring, but the "common area" is fenced (all the dogs in the neighbour hood play together there).
We are in no hurry to get a brother/sister for Sheriff, as we believe in forever, and want to make sure that all parties involved are happy, and that it is right for all of us!! LOL
We would like a doggie under 80lbs, but smaller is probably better. I have no aversion to special needs dogs, blind, deaf, epileptic whatever as long as we are the right family for that dog.
In terms of cosmetics, I am partial to all white dogs, or brindle coloring, and I really like the "pushed in nose" style (boxer, bully, BT) however, those are just cosmetics, and if the right doggie comes along and is blackwith a 2ft long snout well then so be it!! LOL
Anywya, the reason for this thread, originally was to ask about this feline rescue group.... I am still researching, but will keep you all posted. Thnaks BTW BoxerRescue, for putting the rescue/SPCA question into perspective. Your right, any adopted dog, will help save a life!!
Any othere advice/ opinions etc... is greatly appreciated, and thoroughly read!! Thanks in advance.
