I won't be getting Arite (the Boxer I want)....

Ritz459 · 01-05-2005, 02:30 PM

I wasn't able to convince my mom and my dad that having a Boxer would be so great.

BUT, I was on Petfinder agian today (I just can't help it) and I found an 11 month old Mastiff/Saint Bernard mix that is ADORABLE and my Mom loves him too. (She is a HUGE fan of Saints.) So me and my mom are going to tag team on my dad and try to convince him that we need a dog that is already 108lbs inside, who's name is Baby Huey

.)

. That should be really interesting. lol

(And I tried to post his link but I couldn't figure it out......

I did it once but I can't do it now! I need

when it comes to computers......

)

DarknessDivine · 01-05-2005, 02:44 PM

IceyBlueSibes · 01-05-2005, 02:56 PM

Sorry to hear about the boxer situation. But thats' cool that she's interested in the B.M/St.B mix! Haha, keep us updated on how it goes with your dad. Atleast you have a little help from your mom this time

)

***Carrie*** · 01-05-2005, 05:38 PM

Southern Girl! Shame on you. LOL LOL....You two are like a pack of dogs mapipulating and circling your Dad. How could you? LOL LOL LOL LOL!!!!

Ritz, I am sorry for your disappointment. But I think most all things happen for a reason and maybe whatever dog you do end up with at some point will be the best thing to ever happen for you. So, hang in there. Maybe you could take lessons from Southern girl on how best to go in for the kill. Hee hee hee hee.

FurryAngel33 · 01-05-2005, 07:04 PM

aww sry you didn't get the boxer, maybe you can get the mix!!!! Sounds CUTE!!!!!!!

:rol l2:

oc_spirit · 01-05-2005, 07:42 PM

Awww sry about the Boxer! Good luck with your dad!! As for getting the URL, do you see the white bar with letters in it at the top of your window? Right now it would read http://www.globalpaw.com........ and random numbers and letters after it. When you're on the petfinder page he's on left click your mouse just in front of the "h" in "http..." and while holding the button on the mouse down, drag your mouse across so that you start highlighting the URL. Go all the way until the entire URL is highlighted. Then put your mouse over any part of the highlighted URL and left click on your mouse. A lottle options menu will appear and click on "copy". Then when you're here answering a message right click your mouse in the message box and the little options window will appear again but this time click "paste" and there you have it! Does that make sense to you?

Cheers!

Sorry about the Boxer, but maybe it happened for a reason! I hope you and your mom can get your dad to consider the little (Umm..) guy! It's be great of you to give a shelter dog a good home..

Haha, I'd have to agree with ya there linnie

When you're outnumbered by women, you can forget it!

Ritz459 · 01-06-2005, 02:27 PM

Sorry I haven't been on for a while. We had a pretty bad ice storm and our phone lines where down.
Here is the update. We talked about Baby Huey, but we're probably not going to get him either for two reasons.
1. We pitty our cat who will die of fright with a dog that big in our house. I don't think Rush would ever show his face again. (He'd be upstairs, living in my mom and dad's bedroom, refusing to show his face ever agian.

lol)
2. We don't know if a Humungo dog and Melanie (my 4yr old little sister) would be able to mix well. (Exspecialy since it said in his profile that his one bad habit is jumping on people

Talk about being bruised!)

(And also when we were telling Dad about him, he just sat there and shook his head like, "Why me?" It was pretty funny. lol)

But I was talking to mom today while she was on the computer typing up stuff for our school work, and I was asking her about Artie agian and how I really wanted a Boxer because I want to get into dog sports and they are the perfect breed for that and me, and she said, 'You know how you get gut feelings sometimes?' and I said, 'Yah.' then she said, 'Well I have a that kind of feeling about Artie. That we should get him. When I saw Baby Huey on Petfinder, it was more of a,'Oh he is so cute and looks like a lovable goof. I want him.' When you told me about Artie, it was more of a gut feeling that we should get him. It is your dad that won't be so keen on the idea."

So maybe all hope is not lost after all!

(Yes, women will power is strong, but our dad has the last say in everthing and he is really stubborn. It is hard to make him see things your way unless you put up a really good argument. [And I mean really good.])

Oh, and if anybody is interested in Baby Huey, he is in IL

. Here is his profile: http://www.petfinder.com/pet.cgi?act...=0&tmpl=&stat=

oc_spirit · 01-06-2005, 02:40 PM

Good luck with Artie!!!!!!

BTW Huey looks soooo cute!!!

Cheers!

Rip's Girl · 01-06-2005, 05:26 PM

Huey is DARLING!! I love him.

I can't keep up with all the threads, so if you've said before, I'm sorry.. But what's the story behind Artie?
