Does anyone have an opinion about the following:

Can a dog lover and a cat lover find happiness in the same household?

sure, why not? As long as the DOG AND CAT LOVE EACH OTHER AND GET ALONG...lol ;)
J/K YES, there should be no reason why not as long as you two fit in other ways that make a good relationship...

I spent yesterday playing baseball with my best friend's two little girls, 7 and 13. They have an intelligent border collie bred to herd sheep. Every time the girls hit the ball and I started chasing them, the dog would bite my ankles and herd me away from them.

I am nursing about thirty bites right now.grumble




LOL sorry about that...

My nose and cheek right now is so bruised and sore...at school yesterday during vet tech class in the lab, I was doing a lateral hold on a huge black lab and he flipped on me and came back and head butted me..I had a nice bloody nose for a while..havent had one of those for a while...but I'm sure it wont be my last


Urgh! Keep an eye on that, and hope it doesn't go into any sinus problems.

I got slammed in the face by one of the goats horns 2 years ago, it was sore, but fine, then 3 months after it became infected. Managed to clear it with echinacea. Now it's back, and isn't healing. No insurance, so I'm self-treating. I've got a liquid bubble on the upper portion, inside of my mouth in the sinus cavity, which I hope won't get worse. Mom passed me a couple amoycillian pills but it's not helping.



YOUCH!!!!(about the goats horn)
I'm sure it will be okk...still really sore..just bruised good is all....Second week of school andalready a mishap, so I figure this will be the 1st of many...especially working with animals....
when I used to work at the humane society, I have been scratched, bit and whatever an animal is capable of doing...lol ..all part of the job, but still no fun at all!

Oh yeah, it definitely happens. I've got nicks, and marks and scars from that and grooming. No biggie. I tried working at the SPCA up in Dallas, and walked away for 2 reasons.

1) a deaf pit bull came in, and they wouldn't let me adopt her, despite having a deaf Dogo Argentino. They put her down because she was a pit, and they don't even adopt pitties out to rescue.

2) Then I was told if I ever got bit by a dog or cat, I'd have to stand and witness them cutting it's head off to send away for rabies testing.

I told them to bugger off and left.

Yes! I'm an animal lover! Right now,I have a very loveable pug named Nemo.He is 5 and half yrs old. Someday I hope to win the Lottery and buy a farm,where I can have as many pets that I can take care of. Every Wed. in the newspaper there are dogs and cats that need a home and I want them so much but I live in a apt and only allow one pet.

Hmmm, maybe an elephant?! LOL

Congrats on your test grade. Have fun with the breed thing. IS it based off the AKC breeds, or a different group?
