A cat.
Oh, useful? -
Why is your dog named after cat food?
The shame!.gif)

I'm allergic to cats so that's a no-no. I'm thinking of getting a Chihuahua for a laugh. The GF wants the 2nd dog really, but she's shit at all the walking and exercise that comes with having a dog so I'm reluctant to give myself double the work, so a Chihuahua would solve that problem.
However, I'd worry that one day I'd come home to find the big dog has suffocated the little dog.

I didn't choose the name, she's a rescue dog.

Registered 15 years agoHow about a rescue greyhound? They make great family pets, don't need as much exercise as you think, plus you'll be rehoming one of the most abandoned breeds in the UK (due to all the racing).
I got my boy, Bob, about 7 years ago. One of the best things I've ever done. -
Actually you're not the first person to recommend Greyhounds. A guy I regularly bump into on the moor and his family look after 17 of them as they were abandoned and he said I can have one of his. He also said they only need one 20 minute walk a day as they use up so much energy in that time that they're fucked for the rest of the day. -

Registered 18 years agoYou'll most likely be looking for a good match for the Alsatian so i'd recommend a smarty like an otterhound("it has great strength and dignity, with a strong body and long striding action") or a anatolian shepherd dog("They become very protective of other animals in the household, and will treat them as their "flock." They have also been known to kill bears to protect their charges.") 
Alsatians + Labradors or Alsatians + Golden Retriever make good chums n'all, i grew up in a Alsatian + Golden Retriever/Lab cross pack. Bitches the two of them
Not getting a puppy are you? -
