Geez. I really need to stop going on petfinder.org. I have had the hankerin’ for a dog for the past couple of years. The main thing that’s holding me back is the amount of time a dog would take. As most of my friends know, I am on the go for most of the year with theater and such. I just don’t feel like I should get a dog unless I have more time (than I do now) to devote to it. Then why not get a cat, you ask. I like cats. Had one when I was growing up. I just think that as I have gotten older I appreciate dogs a little more. I want a beagle. That’s what I would get.
