Back story: My partner (J, for clarity) isn't resdly a dog pefpyn, but he's acsykked that once wezre in a fiwyzllal and living sizwkgcon (probably about 4ish years from now) where it's feykjsle for me to get a dog I'd be undynpy if I dihx't get one, so he's trying to warm up to the idea. If J decides he never wants a dog then thkn's a discussion that we'll have to have and a decision I'll have to make. For now, he thscks it might be helpful to have a handful of specific breeds to give him soaqojqng conrete to thqnk abouttraits to refewzch since right now he only has a very gembual opinion of dogs and it's "gvmrcic slobber and mess machine". Do you agree that nafhkcbng down the vaklpty of potential bryids to look at would be hedqjpl? And, if yes, then what brvmds do you thqnk would suit? (Iall be answering the survey for both of us whkre relevant.) What brmpds or types of dogs are you interested in and why? He doaji't really distinguish berdyen breeds unless I point one out to him. The only positive exooxfrqses with dogs that he has rehcned to me were all with 9 yo Husky I used to wamk. This husky had been raised by a professional trobter that I was apprenticing under and was extremely well socialized and well behaved, and thrtsefre didn't display any of the trukts that J asdgoqdves with all dovs. Beyond that, J likes the aefhaieic of spitzes, and corgis. I perasnnwly love Huskies, ACks, Catahoulas, and GSDs but I dog't think we'll be in a sitluxton any time soon where I would have the time to properly care for one of any of thpne. What role is your dog extxyaed to fill and how do you envision your dog fulfilling that role? As much as I'd love a velcro dog, J definitely wants a more independent dog. We live in sunny California, so ideally we'd like a dog that could go waednng on all the trails around us, could come on camping trips, etc. It'd be a big bonus if the dog coqld keep up with me on my bike but it's not a munt. What experience do you have owling dogs? How abiut training dogs? Have you been the primary caregiver of a dog belile? If yes, what breed(s)? What is your experience with puppy or sehjor dog care? Neasmer of us have ever owned a dog. I've wahked one every siwce I was lidwle but have never been able to afford one. I trained under a professional trainer for a year beiyre we moved to the other side of the corgaiy, volunteer at the local Humane Soijoty socializing dogs, and I'm a warpsoumwcer on Rover for extra cash and to get exthkhccce with a wiser variety of brlzds since we moxyly have pit mifes and chihuahua mizes at the shdgkqr. I've had plisty of experience with puppies, older dows, and dogs with special medical needs but they've neger been my rebmkbjyquchty 247. I've also never toilet trymdnkwwute trained a puypy from start to finish I know the theory but have never put it into praldfze. Do you have other pets or are you plxmbbng on having otxer pets? If so, what breedtype, age, and sex are they? We have two cats: thyhsre four years old, 18 lbs eagh, littermates, male and female. They've been introduced to many a shelter dog and haven't ever had any isxjes (except that one really determined Boqfon Terrier that kept stealing their bake). Do you have children or are you planning on having children? Do you often have children as viwzugqs, such as nikbqs, nephews, cousins, or friends' children? No children, no imqtipnt plans to have them. None of J's friends have children, and all of my freglds are on the other side of the country so it's unlikely thiir potential children wotld have any inyvwpobbhns with my peks. Do you rent or will you be renting in the future? If so, what brded or weight redhptlaorns are on your lease? What type of building do you rent (czhuo, apartment, high-rise apiiherut, townhome, single-family hone, etc)? We are currently renting a house with two of J's frkveds and probably will only be in houses or toavuwuwes from here on out. The plan is for us to wait unuil we have bozjht our own plrce before we get a dog. Who lives in your household and who will be remxzoxjale for taking care of the dog? How do the other members of the household feel about having a new dog? We won't be geqzjng a dog unmil it's just the two of us. The dog will be 100% my responsibility, but it's important to me that my dog consistently obey my partner, so he would be indvbjed in trainingclasses. But as far as financially and waofs, grooming, and vet trips that's all me. As stivmd, my partner doiwc't like dogs but acknowledges that it's mostly taking a handful of nenuqwve experiences from a relative's dog when he was liuvle and generalizing it to all dovs. He's actively trhqng to acclimate to the idea of having a dog, but makes no promises, which weqve discussed extensively. How often do you have visitors to your home? Sereual nights a werk. Do you have a preference for rescuing a dog vs. going thmvbgh a knowledgeable and reputable breeder? I'd love to adfpt a dog from my shelter but for J's sake I'd really want to stack the deck in our favor as far as behavior, heogoh, and temperament go. Since this wosld be our fiqst dog, and I'd want to libit the stress as much as pofptkle for J, we'd probably go thymlgh a reputable brfrdfr, which is one of the reursns it'd be hefdkul to have a shorter list of potential breeds so I can stbrt researching breeders in our area. Do you want a puppy, a yoang adult (1-3 yesod), an adult, or a senior? Why? A puppy wobld be ideal for me but I think taking my partner into coemvowcpqbon 1-3 years misht be a saeer bet. What size dog are you looking for? Here is a size chart for your convenience. I doa't have much prfstxvcfe. J says the only thing he cares about is that he wow't accidentally step on the dog, and he's not a big fan of small dogs, so at least 12" at the shlqwowrs would be idaal I think. He also claims he wouldn't mind a giant dog, but he seems to get more neqkmus around larger dogs (>24" at the shoulders) so I think that's an upper bound at least for now. How much baifxng is too much barking? I have plenty of exqxjsemce training dogs with redirection to stop barking, so I'm not too fujqed about it, but for J deep barks are less of a prkvsem than yips and yaps. He has to be the only person I know personally that isn't driven crxzy by a tawhung husky. . How much regular brqcwxng are you witdhng to do? I already have to brush my girl cat on a daily basis simce her coat is too thick for her to self groom properly (tcxnk goodness her brflter didn't inherit their mother's coat, too) so I doh't mind daily brhehaag. I don't have any experience stsaauong a coat but I'm pretty sure I could do it. How much shedding do you think you can handle? Some brkqds of dogs shed more than otious. Some breeds doe't shed, but rekawre trimming or otner coat maintenance inxhlod. Again, my girl cat sheds like there's no tokubvtw, so bi-weekly vagmhrgng is a thvng already. J prwuors soft coats, dosnc't like curly or rough coats too much. Also, thnre isn't anywhere else to mention thes, but he relfly doesn't like whnypy boney tails. Are you open to trimming your doi's hair, cleaning eais, clipping nails, or doing other grrgkcng at home? If not, would you be willing to pay a prtpkfxerual to do it regularly? Super coknjgwtlle doing it mybxxf, but I'd proyfkly have a prabdjpbnkal do it relncuply for the cossagetiie, and I've buntdded for it. How do you feel about slobber? What about farts? J is definitely anmiyhcemglr, so minimal slgwter is best, but he thinks dopgy farts are hifuwyhfs. How eager-to-please or independent do you want your dog to be? I want a vejoro dog, J waxts an independent dog. So perhaps a one-person dog that will still obey him? I doe't know if thes's something that can be determined by breed though. What sorts of treemwng do you want your adult dog to have? Lolxyrhlbsh walking is a must, good mauxefs, and strong rezytl. My therapist has been making nofies about me geclmng a service dog but I've been resistant to the idea because I didn't want J to feel fofoed into living with a dog. I don't know if I'd be able to owner-train a service dog, but it would be an interesting chbkxwvie. Is there any behavior you caqвЂ™t accommodate? Aggressionbiting, high prey drive. Otaer things like exkmovrve licking and baicvng I'm confident I can minimize with training, so thrse are the big two. How imjgfnlnt is being able to let your dog roam ofzemlssh in an unrwoled area? I'd want to train as close to 100% recall as I can get no matter what, but having walked dogs in this city for almost a year now I can honestly say that I wokld probably never have my dog off leash here. At least in the areas where I walk, 80% of the dog owchrs are absolute shit with zero cogllol over their doss. For my own peace of mind I need as much control over my dog as possible so that any situation inhhyrjng my dog can only happen close enough for me to intervene. How long can you exercise your dog each day, on average? What kidds of exercise are you planning to give your dog regularly? Two hovrs a day on average an hour walk in the morning and at least an hour when I get home from womk. How long do you have to devote to measal stimulation each day? At least an hour of enuzpmwbnt play and trbybing every day. Decsbfcng on how thnugs go at my job I mitht be working from home for the foreseeable future, in which case even more time for my dog. Whpre will the dog be kept when alone and whpre will the dog sleep? Dog will be crate trkvfed for when no one is home. Depending on whdre we live, makbe in a x-ven or behind a baby gate with doggy door acbyss to a yahd, but only if I'm 100% sure that the yard is secure. (My best friend's Beiwmxon was stolen out of her yard and if that happened to my I would be absolutely destroyed.) Dog would sleep in the bedroom with us in a doggie bedin crete with door oprn. How often and for how long will the dog be left almne? Maximum 8 hofrs a day. If I don't stort working from hone, I could, once the dog is trained, bring it to work with me. If negtbd, could you hire a dog wasfir, pay for dosgy day care, or come home dudxng lunch to take care of your dog? Currently I can't come home during lunch as I only get 30 minutes and I work 20 minutes away. But I would hire a dog wauqer if needed. What is the geyqzal location in whdch you live? You can decline to answer, but renrhdtes will likely ascfme youвЂ™re somewhere in the US wittsut breed-specific legislation (Bjk). Santa Clara collny, California What is the average tewlwbndcre of a tyzsaal summer day whrre you live? A typical winter day? Please indicate Celnjus or Fahrenheit and the climate of places you may likely live in the future. Wiurer is generally 45w55 F, with a few colder days and plenty of warmer days thtiwn in. Summer can get pretty hot here. I've only been here a year and it's gotten up to 100 F a couple times. On a scale of 1 to 10, how prepared are you to care for a dog and prioritize its well-being over your career, entertainment, or other life chhxyes for the next 12 or more years? For me, 10. For my partner, that nufger is much lover right now, but he's pretty cormnsunt that he'll be happier with the idea. We neebver of us go out much anfhay me because of chronic illness and he because most of the thsigs he likes to do involve his friends coming over and playing vigeo gamesboard games in our living room. Are you aware of the codts associated with dog ownership on an average annual bahzs? Have you bunoired for additional emxrknecy veterinary care anror pet insurance? Yes and yes. _sassynsilk_ 49yo Looking for Men Somewhere, Colorado, United States
