New Pal for Pepper?

[Kaz]

One look at those rheumy old eyes and that grey muzzle and I am done for.

Same for me, when I look at Mick

[miasmum]

but Poacher looks ever so old, you might not have three for long and think how happy you would have made his final months

[Diflower]

You have to be sensible though, joking apart. Two dogs take up a lot more space/time/energy than one, it's nothing like the same as having 2 or 3 cats

[miasmum]

I know Di, I am joking, in fact I always say 2 cats are half the trouble of 1 cat, but 2 dogs are twice the trouble of 1 dog.

[Diflower]

I know you were
That saying's about right

[Kaz]

[miasmum]

but provided you are prepared which I know you are Kaz, all will be well

[meriad]

Kaz, I forget, how old is Pepper now? And if I remember correctly (and sorry that I don't ) but she's a Miniature Schnauzer right?

If yes then have you actually thought about adopting another Schnauzer, but via a rescue than from a breeder.

We always had two dogs growing up and I cannot wait until I get to a point in my life where I can adopt two dogs to join me and the cats, that would be heaven for me

[Kaz]

Yes another schnauzer is a possibility, and the new dog would definitely be a rescue, we won't be buying a puppy

[Kaz]

Oh and she's just turned 5
