We don't have any pets. I'm not a pet person. If we were ever going to get one, it'd be a dog. (I'm allergic to cats).

Married since 9-18-04(All K1 visa & GC details in timeline.)

My husband and I decided to take a little dog for me about a year ago...

He wasn t for the idea of a dog at the starting...

We went to all the dogs shelter in Denver... Without any luck...

Look all around in the papers as well... No luck

then found one o craigslist.

We looked for a dog for about 2 months.

The reason why we took a dog was for me as i didn t have a lot of friends we thought that getting me a fluffy one be good..

Her little dog is really part of the family...

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

My husband and I looovvveee dogs !! He just cannot live without them :P We only have 1 dog now since we live in small apartment, but we would like to have more once we get our own house. I think talking birds will be cool, but I don't know if I could stand their smells. Definitely no cats since hubby is very allergic to them.
