Today I am babysitting my neighbor's dog. Her name is Lucy. She is very pretty but I think there is something wrong with her eyes. She is a beagle and reminds me of a dog we kids had long ago. She was part beagle. Do you like dogs? What kind of dog do you have or would like to have? Do you have a photo to share?

@akalinus Oh yes and he acts like a Sultan as well believe you me although he is very silly and a lot of people back away from German Shepherds at first. If only they knew how silly he really is.

We love dogs, but can't have them where we live. Little Miss would really do well with dog as a companion. Unfortunately we will need to wait til we move. Doubtful that we can even get one as a support dog for her. Our landlord would give us a difficult time.

@akalinus there have been other people that have had one here. But she gave them a hard time and all of them have moved out.

@ElusiveButterfly It sounds like she is a difficult person to get along with.

Your landlord would have to accept a service dog. It is the law.

@LadyDuck We did also for a few years. I am by myself and could not go up north if I had to worry about a pet.

Sometimes, it is better to fuss over someone else's dog.

If you got a dog, it would have to be compatible with the kangaroos.

@JudyEv I had a dog that hopped through the weeds like a kangaroo. I called her my kanga puppy.

Well, cows are great but they can't sit on your couch. They have beautiful eyelashes though.

@Shivram59 I know a couple of people that have a cow for a pet. They are usually in a fenced-in yard or corral. The cow runs up to get petted whenever they are there.

I see well I guess for as long as her owners are there you cannot keep it. I unfortunately do not have dogs anymore. In my younger years I have one that I kept but now I think that it is not practical for me to keep one for myself since it is pretty costly to maintain and when you leave places you'll need for them to look for them while your out.

My daughter gave me a German Shepherd she named Pigeon. I really loved the dog, but I had to give her back to my daughter after I broke my hip, I just wasn't able to take care of her. My daughter has tried to get me to take her back since I have gotten better, but I no. I really can't afford the cost of what it takes to care for a dog.

Dogs are expensive if you do it all right. I could not afford to do whatever is needed to fix Lucy's eyes and who knows if she has other problems. I think she is an older dog. Then there are neighbors who hate people to have dogs.

The photo is blurred so I can't see her eyes well. Why do you think there is something wrong with them?
