Not sure if I am ready or not. He is a stronger male than my sweet Lakota was. He is a mix of DDR over showline.

I find that when I ask for opinions about a decision, I have already made up my mind smile.

He is plainly adorable.

Um, Val - you do know that is a black sheep, right?

Oh my gosh - I hope you do add him to your family - I would love to see him grow up.

(of course, if not you could always add Nico to your family.)

Guys, lots of things to consider here. One is $$$, Had a large unexpected expense in December, luckily we got a payment plan on that, but I have to get that paid off. I think Cheyenne would enjoy playing with a puppy once in a while, I am pretty sure Raya would since that is all she wants to do is play. But the other thing that is holding me back is I am reinventing myself work wise and I have a bunch of things I need to do get that working.

So right now isn't feasible. But say in another 4 weeks if the little fella doesn't have any takes, I might be in a better position. I got Lakota when he was 16 weeks old and it worked out well for me. He was imprinted with kids which I don't have.

So we shall see where this goes.

He is going to be a handsome hunk when he grows up.

No, I don't think you are ready. Instead, you should send him to me! whistling

He is so cute! (Of course, I'm partials to those LCs!). Only you can decide if you're ready; obviously, the first year is so expensive with shots and all. But, then again, it is tax season, so perhaps with that tax refund, the baby furball can come home with you! thumbup

He is darling Val

I understand all of the thought that goes into an addition, I first reached out to Lee (this last time rofl ) in August to discuss puppies but I had a couple hurdles of my own that had to be crossed first.

I count myself lucky that those hurdles were crossed and I was able to add Kaos to my life spitcoffee that sounds funny, lucky to add Kaos....

So I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, I'd wub to watch this pup grow up

He is so adorable. I think adding a new member is always a big step and requires more sacrifices but if you would be able to take him in 4 weeks, I would get him now and just try to sacrifice in some other areas maybe to make up for the extra expense for 4 weeks.

Well I have decided now is not the right time or it isn't the right pup. Not sure which it is, but I do know that it isn't. If it was the right pup or the right time, I would make it happen some how. So I know this isn't to be.
