My wife and I have 7 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 birds (down from 11 dogs,11 cats, 2 birds, 2 goats, 3 hamsters, and 1 fish...trying to scale down, through natural decrease). With this many critters, we never travel together, or leave them alone for over eighteen hours; for over twenty years, we've been blessed with strays from all over, from friends, and from mercy calls. We were down to 4 dogs, awhile back, but within two months had acquired 3 more (my wife can't say no...except to me). The newest dog was a package deal, two for one. We took in the father miniature long haired Dachshund, to keep the owner from turning it in to "coyote bait", and got its mixed-breed offspring newborn pup as a "reward"...a Dorkie (half miniature long haired Dachshund/half Yorkie. She was going to be my wife's personal assistant/companion dog, but she adopted me as her human instead. When I'm at home, she's my
constant companion. I can't even view this forum without her supervision (I've learned to type my posts one -handed, since she stays curled up in my other arm). You gotta love that.
