I'm a big fan of dogs (definitely moreso than cats) and I wasn't really able to get one before because I was traveling a lot. But now that traveling has slowed down a lot, I think I can pull it off.
The only problem is...well, do this for me, ok? Pull up Google and search for "good apartment dogs". You'll notice two things from the lists you pull up:
- Every list is different.
- The common dogs listed are the kinds you expect to be wearing pink sweaters and nail polish.
My mother, meanwhile, is having a hard time understanding how a dog can be expected to ride an elevator down 14 floor just "to piddle". I figure - it's not my elevator and I'd be paying a pretty good deposit for them to fix stuff like that, right?
Here's the crowning achievement - I looked for dogs and found one that seems almost perfect. In fact, almost too perfect.
So I'm putting it out there - what do you guys think? Do I need company in my apartment? Or is it not quite time?

I absolutely think your apartment needs company. Without me as a permanent fixture on your floor, somebody should keep that spot warm.
And lord knows the dog wouldn't make nearly as many messes as Dan ;)
yes! though i'm partial to american bulldogs, i think beagles are adorable. then again, a dog is a huge responsibility... think you're ready to be a daddy?
