....and Kali is right!!  but how do I convince dh??

I completely agree to let Kali test out any future boyfriends.  I REALLY believe a dog can suss out if a guy is a jerk!  And any guy who can deal with fur and drool, and in Cowboy's case, gas  ::) can probably deal with a woman!!!

I have to agree with Kali. I'm thinking black female. Cowboy and Chester need a little lady to escort them around ;)

Yeah, but with a female, it might just throw Cowboy back in to seizures.  You know how a female can mess with a man's mind!!  That's why we got Chester!!! ;) ;) ;)  He can deal with another guy!!!

Oh no! We definitely don't want any of that! OK, a black male then. I like it. :)

Hubby needs a daddy's 'little' girl.....come on how could you resist.  And how can Cowboy and Chester have the full life experience without a little sister to pester them? Come on you know you want a black bear to add to the panda and grizzly....

Awww don't they look so snuggly together? I love it when the dogs are all cuddled up.

As for having more Newfies in the house, well I say you should have as many as you can, I would like a Landseer to go with my brown's and black's :)... Mind you I wouldn't mind another brown or black either. I'm a hopless case!!!

There was about 16 months between my first two Newfs and that was nice. Having a brother and sister I wouldn't recommend having 2 too close together. Mine were great when they were tiny, but the last couple of months they were totally mad together.... Until we had to split them up because of Kitten's OCD ::), now they miss one another, poor babes.

Does this mean I won't be taking Cowboy home anytime soon?   :D

What a lovely kind boy! I know that if Flynn had his nuts chopped off, Libby would just laugh at him and take advantage. At the moment they're arguing over a Nylabone - the fact that we have two identical ones doesn't matter, if one of them has it, the other just must have that one!

Cowboy's were gone when we got him...so I think he has more sympathy for Chester than Libby would have for Flynn!!:D :D

Chester has his B O U N C E back!  He's feeling great and doesn't seem to miss them at all.  That said, I had to go and fetch him again last night....he had gone off visiting again!!!  Maybe we need a little less bounce!!! ::) ::)

LOL!  It is so good to hear he's feeling better!  I won't even say, "We told you so."   ;D LOL!  So, when do the gate guys start coming with their estimates?  Good luck!

LOL!!!  Tomorrow at 9:00am!!!  One of the main escape routes has already been fenced in...now we have to deal with the driveway!!

....and you can say "I told you so"!!  I always worry when an animal is under the weather and always go to worst case scenario!  I am relieved it's over and we don't have to do THAT again!!
