This is a good friend of Mary Kate Tate's new puppy affectionately named Nelson. For most people who know me I've been scared of dogs all of my life. However, I've recently (past year or so) come to the revelation of getting a puppy and raising it on my own. I feel that this form of therapy would be best to get over my fear. Alas my fear will never be put to rest because my dear husband refuses to get a puppy. He's "allergic", and here's how our convo went:
Me: can we please get a puppy?
James: i thought you were scared
(i proceeded to explain my self-prescribed therapy)
James: i don't want to buy something that i will have to serve. it's not gonna happen. besides, i'm allergic
Me: you're allergic?
James: yea my parents told me when i was a kid
(ZACK MORRIS TIMEOUT): you put two and two together and tell me whether or not he's really allergic. If I was a parent who didn't want my kids to get a dog, my kid would probably develop an allergy too.
Everyone in my complex has a puppy, and is that the reason I want one? No, I don't need a conversation piece to get into the dog park club. I really do want a puppy. So this post is dedicated to my burning desire to get a puppy. Here are some of my top choices:
Beagle
Boxer
Please comment and voice your best reasons for getting a puppy to convince my husband that we should get one too. CAVEAT: Dog-owners preferred.
