Sorry for the thread hi-jack about wanting a dog. No, in 11 months I retire... I'll head to the pound that weekend. I'm leaning towards a mutt of some kind.
Worf
No apologies necessary! I approve whole-heartedly of your good intentions, Worf. Mutts are the best - and don't overlook the more senior ones! (our Bo is about 8 or 9 and he's the most perfect dog imaginable. We feel like we've loved him all his life).
Maybe when you've found your new pal and you two are completely inseparable and you're a total dog fan, maybe you'll change your handle to Woof?
