I want a dog.Follow

This is now officially The Plan.

I haven't been very fair to my husband. He has always said that he'll never be happy about getting a dog, but he won't stand in my way. I told him I would take as much of the burden of caring for the dog as I could, but I would need a little help. But I really wanted to do this, and he said ok.

So I applied for the puppy in the OP or one of her sisters, and they are going to set up a meeting.

I are happy.

Oh, Usagi.

I'm going to have to agree with Sandi here. When I eventually get a dog, I am going to go for a Dachshund. Adorable little dog. Although it will have to be the smooth variety, not a fan of the longhair let alone the wirehair one.

I might also want to point out a Cocker Spaniel. My parents have a black one and the dang thing is playful when you want to play and relaxed when you want to relax. As Lolgaxe put it, it's cute enough to make you puke rainbows. :P

I got a dog!!!





We named her Akira, and we have the cutest puppy in the whole entire world.

She was playin' in the second photo.

And Turin is a ****.

Should have gotten a Lab :P



Akira is cute though, just keep em groomed. Nothing looks worse than a dirty, matted shih tzu.

Should have named the dog Tetsuo, would have made this pic more relevant.



Yes, the cat is supposed to be the chick.

Congratulations on the little cutie.

That makes 2 of us getting pups!

My husband loves Akira Kurosawa films, and he was watching Throne of Blood as I was trying to find a name. I was reading a list of "puppy names" and Akira popped up. He said, "I love it."

And a star was born.

That is the most adorable goddamn dog I have ever seen.

I'm sorry, Eske. Your dog is freaking adorable. I've been too busy playing with my new puppy to post much.

BELKIRA, I AM STILL SQUEEING FIVE MINS LATER AND BT SQUEED A GOOD MINUTE HIMSELF.

Is that a pure shih tzu or a mix? He looks purebred and I'm going to come to your house to steal him. Trust me, they are the best dogs ever and your husband will definitely learn to love him. Here is one of my favorite shih tzu quotes to describe their temperament:
