I am all for the rescue or a mutt they are great dogs if you want a medium sized pure bred that is great and does not shed and is very unterrier like is the Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. Very sweet dog good with kids and not hyper

On the Purina Website, there is a questionnaire called "Dog Chooser". It asks a series of questions about what you would like in a dog (grooming, obedience, learning, dominance, exercise, size...) and matches you up with dogs. Now the good thing about this is, there are 160 dog breeds in their repertoire, and the put the 160 in order from best to worst, according to your selections. On your list, you can also view all of the breeds profiles.

It is a purina site, so in the questionnaire there are questions about feeding the dog, which to me look more like a survey, and doesn't really have anything to do with chosing a dog breed.

But overall, it's pretty good! When I did it, it said that I should have a Pitbull, which surprised me because I didn't even think the breed would be on there.

Do some research on line and learn about the breed. If you keep it, make sure you spay or neuter. Then go buy some brushes - you are going to need them.

A 5$ gerbil is not worthy of medical care, so what about this dog who is free?

If you have no intention of spending money on pets that are not expensive, I suggest you try and find another home for this collie and go and buy a puppy. If you have to pay a large price, maybe you'll take better care of it.

Get a stuffed animal. They thrive on neglect and never require vet visits. And your kids can maul them all they want without getting bit. No shedding! You don't even have to buy food for them!

I can mourn for a stuffed animal, believe me...

If the great Gerbil, caring animal lover lived alone, I would suggest getting a king cobra as a pet at let it roam free while you sleep. Let it coil under your pillow..

Cuddle with care..

kibbles, I know that you are ALSO "Electric Mutt". Do not use different identities or you will be banned.

So you are saying you put the poor gerbil outside to die or be killed by a cat or any other animal who finds it? That may be excusable if you were 8 years old, but you say you are a teenager who should have more sense.

Since you also say the amount of care an animal gets depends on how much it cost you, I really hope you don't get any more pets until you learn some responsibility.

Can you at least get one story straight? So you and Electric mutt are taking turns posting on YOUR computer, and you both have the same spelling and grammar?

And Electric Mutt was lying about you putting your sick pet outside to fend for itself?

Haven't you got anything better to do than this?

My opinion? Too much time has been spent babysitting these kids which do not have any constructive activities set aside by their parents because...1.) The parent(s) is also trying to hold down a job to put food on the table for these spoiled heathens.
2.) The parent(s) really do not give a rat's ass what their kid's are doing as long as they do not get a call @ 3am to bail out of jail one of the said heathens.
3.) ..or these bored brats are stealing time from mommy & daddy's computer, seen this alot elsewhere this time of year.
