on the other side in jacksonville.... but visit my folks in mobile frequently. they also have a place in perdido key. anyway my daughter has been crying herself to sleep at night in hopes of a dog showing up the next day. but not sure if we wanted to fork out the big bucks for one of those spensive dogs with degrees....

Have you contacted your local humane society and/or animal shelter? Save an animal and get a life-long, dedicated companion. Everyone wins!

You shoudl adopt a grown dog:

1. You're right, pups go more quickly, and wonderful, loving adult dogs many times have to be euthenized.
2. They are, for the most part, house-trained, and are out of the "chewing" stage. Also, you are normally well aware of the dog's health. With puppies, you never know what health problems may be lurking.
3. Adult rescued dogs simply give SO much love dedication. Dogs to whom you give "second chance" show their gratitued with undying, unconditional love and dedication.

You should consider rescuing a grown dog.

Good points Juan, I've considered it, but have been hesitant because of possibility of behavioral problems that might have implications to my 3 youngins. I know that sounds a little selfish but not sure I want to chance any mysterious quirks to deal with and an adult dog will not have as many years to share with the kids as a puppy would. But who knows we may just find the pefect pet in an adult.
