: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 24, 2005, 11:12:04 PM
Ok - So I emalied the foster home where these pups are and they have 2 females available....  She says they are going fast.  So, do i go ahead and get one?  I mean I just got Willow - can I do 2 pups?  They are so cute and my daughter and I are seriously considering a newf in a few months so Willow will have another large dog to play with - cause the mojos are really interested in being nice - at all....  These babies are in Ohio - I have to figure out how to get one to Vegas..The foster home will not ship....  Anyone driving to Vegas?!?!?!

OMG they are really really really cute. One can never have too many fur babies. If you have the room go for it. ;)

Oh wow! What a couple of loves! DO IT! I have a Newf mix. He's WONDERFUL. Of course I'm sure you know already how awesome Newfs are! hehehehe! I could probably pick them up, but I wouldn't be able to bring them very far cuz I start classes on Monday.
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: TwoNewfies August 25, 2005, 06:31:40 AM
I say go for it ;D  I'm the wrong person to ask, I always say what's one more? ;)

Besides they are way too cute!  Somehow I'm sure people will help transport to Vegas!!

I live really close to Washington Courthouse, probably 45 minutes.  I can't make a trip to Vegas but maybe i could pick one up and ship it.  If you really want one we could make it work.
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 06:41:22 AM
Yeah, definitely! I'll be four hours from Washington Court House....don't know if that helps. I'll be in Bloomington, IN. A pup could hang out at my house for awhile if needed, I could drive one a little ways. Maybe to St. Louis? I don't know if that helps, but I agree with Greek. Go for it, if ya want one. I think we could get a network going.

: Kiahpyr August 25, 2005, 06:51:39 AM
They're so adorable!! I also say go for it. Maybe it will be easier with two right now. They will keep each other busy. Watch out mojos! ;)
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 07:15:07 AM
I have been watching those same puppies (I am a petfinder addict) and I too was thinking of adopting one! If I convince myself to, I'll pick one up for you, haha! My boyfriend of course thinks I am a nut...
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 07:21:46 AM
Oh man, Rebekah. I'm a TOTAL Petfinder addict. I hear ya.
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 07:25:30 AM
Then again it's hard to imagine adopting a pup you've never met before. I want a little girl puppy so bad, I am surrounded by testosterone, but I am trying to be reasonable and tell myself that there are probably some puppies in my area that are perfect. But man oh man those little Saint Newfies! Ahhhh! The temptation!!!
( I am totally feeling your frustration, Timmie, when will cuties like this come up again!!! And why aren't they in my neighborhood!)
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 25, 2005, 11:35:12 AM
Wow - you guys would do that...that is awesome!!!!  That would be great is someone could pick her up and ship her...that would be way awesome.  I really want to do it!!!!  I will email the foster mom back again and see if she will go for it!!!!  Then I am going to call my shrink and see if I need to be committed...lo l ;D :P
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 11:36:50 AM
Yeah, let us know what you find out.
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 25, 2005, 11:40:40 AM
k...i will...so excited
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 12:22:05 PM
Aw man, if you get one I am going to be SEETHING with jealousy!!! ;)
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 12:22:45 PM
I'll pick one up for you, too Rebekah! hahahahah!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 12:28:42 PM
Stop it! Don't tempt me!! Of course I could just say, oh look who wandered up to our house, boyfriend, and she's a girl so I guess we can keep her... ;)
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 12:33:42 PM
I think that sounds like a great idea, Rebekah! I'm sure he'll fall for it, too.  ::)
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 25, 2005, 12:38:53 PM
oh rebekah - do it!!!1  then we can share pics of the sisters...At least we will know that those cute girls went to a great loving home!!!!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 12:44:28 PM
I think these are te girls, which one do you like?
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 25, 2005, 12:48:32 PM
Oh they are both so cute!!!!!!  Hard to pick....I'll take the one with the mostly white face....

YES!!!!!  Are we really going to do it!!!!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 12:56:14 PM
Is the one on the left brown? I'll fight you for her!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 12:58:17 PM
Who said that?
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 12:58:55 PM
I can't get a puppy!

Yes I can!

No I can't!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 25, 2005, 12:59:26 PM
lol - I cant tell..wish they had more pics...  you don't have to fight the other one is so very cute also...  I would be happy with either...The one on the right looks more newf to me then the left..that one looks more saint...My daughter and i have been looking at newfs..s the one on the right would be just as good
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 01:02:27 PM
My boyfriend has mentioned before that he wouldn't mind having a saint bernard around, and that one on the left does look a little more "saintly"... I might get away with it that way...

Of course you can have whichever one you want! I am still in the inner conflict/denial phase, I think you are a step ahead of me in the actual making-it-happen phase!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 25, 2005, 01:07:10 PM
lol - well we were looking at getting a landseer which is what the other one looks like...so I will take her...they are both so darn cute...
ok got to hurry up and get past that stage into the making it hapen stage!!!!  come on - catch up!!!!  And you said you have been eyeing them...so you were interested way before I posted in that hateful thread about petfinder dream dog...
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 01:12:57 PM
DO IT, BOTH OF YOU! I'm with Jenn. Get em. Get the pups.
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: nickerbokker August 25, 2005, 01:13:16 PM
im hurrying to go fill out an application, so if you all dont hurry, im going to get the left one before you!  neener neener neener!

jk
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 01:15:27 PM
HAHAHAHAHAHA! Just what Nik needs, another rambunctious Bernard! hahahahaha!

But, you guys never know...she may be serious. She's devious like that. What if she got them before you? You both better act soon...... ;)
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 01:19:26 PM
How far would I have to drive to pick mine up? Ohio looks like a long drive from Nashville...
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 01:20:17 PM
I'll pick her up for ya, Rebekah! We can meet in....Louisvil le? How far is Louisville from Nashville? Its only like, an hour from me!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 01:21:06 PM
Oh man I'm TOAST now! Louisville is probably only 3 hours away or maybe 4!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 01:21:44 PM
Yeah, I think its about 3. (I just looked it up...174.5 miles!)
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 01:24:04 PM
Is it still "pyr pressure" if it's a Saint/Newfie???
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 01:26:22 PM
Hmm....since they're Saints...I think I'd call it "Divine Intervention" ehehehhehehehe hehe!!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 25, 2005, 01:28:37 PM
I just looked up the regulations and if you have over 4 dogs you have to get a dog fanciers license....do you think they will actually count the mojos as 2 dogs?  The two of them combined doesn't even equal 1 whole dog
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kiahpyr August 25, 2005, 01:28:42 PM
Hmm....since they're Saints...I think I'd call it "Divine Intervention" ehehehhehehehe hehe!!

That's a good one Nicole. I've been reading this thread and you all crack me up. Thanks for the laugh!! Go on and get the puppies already. ;D
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 01:31:18 PM
Nope. The mojos are DEFINITELY not a whole dog. They're not even a whole cat. They certainly don't count. hehehehehe!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 01:36:06 PM
Hey Timmie, did you say you spoke to the foster parents?
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 25, 2005, 01:42:51 PM
yep - she emailed me last night...told me they were going fast...she has 2 females and 4 males.  They are 85.00 up front then will give back 25.00 after proof of spay.  She has a lady driving up from MO to pick one up...will not ship...email me
brigid67@yahoo.com
and I will forward a copy of the email with her phone number on it

I just have to figure out how I am going to get her here.  You guys are alot closer
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 01:51:51 PM
Ok I emailed the dang petfinder page to my boyfriend who is at work. I don't know what he'll think. It's all in the question though... I asked... do you think she's cute? And if the answer is yes, well, who cares what the question was!!!
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Nicole August 25, 2005, 01:52:41 PM
HAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAH! I've tried that one before, Rebekah! hahahahahaha! It appears that the question mattered more to Mark than to me! hahahahahaha!

: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kermit August 25, 2005, 04:42:47 PM
Ok... here's what the boyfriend said...
"looks like some good pups - yeah, they're both cute"
Sounds like yes to me!!! I emailed the lady!

: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: Kiahpyr August 25, 2005, 04:44:55 PM
That's great!! Now if only I can talk my husband into one.
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: ZooCrew August 25, 2005, 06:32:34 PM
Looks like I joined this late.  Stop putting up posts about getting puppies.  I can't get one!!!  You are making me sooooo jealous.   >:(  >:(   I can't wait to hear how this all turns out. 

I would help drive one out, but since I'm even farther out than Vegas, I don't think it would do much good.........l ol
: Re: I Want one so bad!!!!
: brigid67 August 25, 2005, 06:37:11 PM
