  • @cdenney excellent advice.
  • @ilium I've been bitten three times.I used to go to school everyday walking through an affluent neighborhood of guard dogs, with open gates. In the a dog that you knew was safe, but the further away from home you got a strange dog might come after y…
  • I wouldn't foster, I'm not yet comfortable around strange dogs, I would be mortified taking one home with me. What do you think buying/adopting is? Its bringing home a strange dog. The only difference is that the foster dog wont stay forever. Wh…
  • I wouldn't foster, I'm not yet comfortable around strange dogs, I would be mortified taking one home with me. I intend to volunteer for a while to get over that in time. I got on well with the maltese that was our tenant's maltese for a year or so…
  • Wow, didn't intend to cause all this. @WrylyBrindle thank you so much, I really have become interested in kai Ken, and the other nk, I enjoy learning about them and my family and everyone I talk dogs with are interested in learning more about these …
  • When I was younger, a hurricane passed very close by, causing major storm conditions, our last dog had finally died in the service of home and household, and a new dog had moved in and started a family. During the storm we hadn't been able to bring…
  • Violet: I know how to handle myself on transit. Wouldn't dream of making a choice without having done a lot of research and meeting examples of the breed, knowing that dogs at events are exceptionally well adjusted amambassadors for their breeds. Li…
  • I definitely think taking a puppy around the five boroughs would teach it not to react to New/strange things with fear. I imagine a kai running off in a strange country on the last day of the trip... =((
  • Haven't had the chance to meet any yet, planning to in February... I'm not rushing the decision. I'll make the necessary preparations. I don't intend to take a fully developed dog frequently on public transportation, (definitely in a carrier) takin…
  • I'm sort of not too crazy about kai's tendency to run away... I was thinking of taking the puppy all around the city, central park and the subway, all over, in addition to places around nj during the socialization intensive period so pretty much not…
  • @Trzcina you helped a lot, this is exactly how I have to be thinking as well. My brother and NY family got really interested, I think they're a little disappointed I'm not getting a puppy yesterday. I definitely hope for my lifestyle to allow me to …
  • [-( you don't make it easy to choose, do you nihon ken?
  • @Roshaad Since (I think) you mentioned somewhere bond was important to you, Be warned that with your long 12 hour work days, it'll take longer for you puppy and you to gegt bonded. Add in the fact that your family might spend more time with your p…
  • I got it. Totally possible. Once you put it like that, it's easily solved. My family are all educators, I have a teen brother and three cousins. Theyll be home and even if I have to work I can just stay in the city with them, that cuts my away time …
  • Is there any way one could get a puppy and be gone for twelve hours? Family, daycare, kenneling, etc? I wouldn't be opposed to an older puppy. I can schedule my vacation for pretty much whenever. And I have literally one last day of college for the …
  • @NavyDog where we live is a pretty good sized house, the yard pprobably is the larger side of small, but across the street is a 300+ acre park. I'm actually on my last two days of college (for now). But I spend around twelve hours away from home on …
