First-Time Dog Owner - Any Suggestions??

i agree with nafadda. it really is your responsibility to read about dogs before getting one. they aren't disposable objects. now gizmo is probably one of 3.7 million animals killed in shelters every year. RIP gizmo.

please read up on backyard breeding and pet overpopulation. and before you THINK of getting another dog read: dogs for dummies. no joke. it's a good book. i'd also recommend the breed specific dummies book (example: chihuahuas for dummies).

sad.
