Rowie-the-Pooh

Welcome notchris! :D Getting another dog is something big. You and your wife should really brainstorm and think about it. Sit down and think of all the things that could go wrong, and all the good things too. Are you ready for another dog? Another dog (especially this big one) means more food, training, toys, bed...etc. Which equals more money. Then the possibility that your other dogs might not get along with the new dog. Ask the shelter/rescue if you can take the dog home on a "trial". Is he good at home? Gets along well? No behavriol problems? If so, are you willing to take the time and pateince to solve it? Is he house trained, if not, ar you willing to take the time (and since he is a older doggie he will be harder to house train) to house train him? Is he trained? If not, are you willing to take the time and money, to train him? Just some of the things you need to think about. You will need to talk to your wife about it, both of you will need to think about it. :wink: You will also need to do some heavy research on both breeds. Both are big dogs, that drool. Sometimes a dog will be more prone to inherited genetic dieseases then others. I think both breeds are prone to Hip Dysplasia. Also, see if both breeds are fit for your lifestyle. But since this is a mix, it can behave in a tottaly different way! So be prepared for surprises! :wink: The most important thing is to listen to your gut instinct! :wink: Most of the time, our instincts are right! :wink: Good luck and keep us updated! :D We would love some pics! :D

OH! If Bill Gates but all his fotune in dollars, undre his bed, and fell from it, it would take him about 6 minutes to reach the ground! :o If you fart non-stop for 6 years, you will have made enough toxin (I think) to produce a an atomic bomb!! :lol: Nadooshkinz will get these right for you, it's 11:44 PM here, and I'm TIRED, so I may have posted these wrong... :-?
