So to recap this thread:

[ QUOTE ]
So my girlfriend and I have decided to go get a small house dog to keep us company.

[ QUOTE ]
wtf? you can't get a dog and then disappear for four months of the year. that would be so awful.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
If you're gone that much, don't get a dog.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
C) You are gone way too much for owning a dog

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
Doesn't sound like you're a good candidate for a dog.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
This should be a deal breaker for anyone. Don't get a dog unless you can take care of it nearly all the time. To do otherwise is just mean.


[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]

Under the conditions described in the OP there is absolutely no way that you should get a dog.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
No Dog for you.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
to be honest it doesn't seem like you really have that much time to devote to it anyway.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
I would strongly recommend to avoid purchasing a dog

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
f you're gone that much getting a dog is foolish and practically cruel. What were you thinking?

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
each time you disappear the dog is traumatized and has to adjust.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
Seems fair. As long as you get to enjoy those eight months, [censored] him for the other four, right?

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
but don't get a dog.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
Definitely don't get a dog

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
I wouldn't get a dog if I were you

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
Getting a dog would be awful for both the dog AND you.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]

Don't get a dog.


[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
Don't get a pet if you plan on abandoning it for 4 months a year.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
So we are still undecided.

[/ QUOTE ]




So basically, you're [censored] retarded? Why bother coming here and asking questions if you are just going to ignore everyone. Pets are living things, you can't simply get one and make it suit your needs and disregard its needs.

I like your post.
