Im so excited and I knew this was coming. She told me this morning she was going on petfinder...you cant go on there and NOT want one. Best of all she wants a PIT! Or pit mix. They have a ton of land in Wisconsin, but a small house so they are wanting a smaller size dog. The dog they have right now is an English Lab (with a docked tail????). I found that one and now she wants my help finding a pit. Any ideas from the midwest? She is about 3 hours from the twin cities and will travel. Brandon, Barbara?? She found an akita pit mix and fell in love but too big. Im so stoked! ## MommyofNiko · 2008-09-07T17:11:36.000Z Maybe even a shiba... ## okiron · 2008-09-07T17:19:48.000Z That's so cool Rachael, what got her into the idea for another dog? ## MommyofNiko · 2008-09-07T17:28:27.000Z She knows how great it is with 2 and her current dog could use a friend to teach her how to play and be a dog. ## MommyofNiko · 2008-09-07T17:55:22.000Z http://www.adoptapet.com/cgi-bin/public/petsearch.cgi/pet\_details?pet\_id=977012&do\_count=1 What kind of dog is this?? ## sujewel · 2008-09-07T19:42:05.000Z Fantastic news!!!! Go Mom! Not all pit's are big, though some can be quite big, but not all of them. Is Dane County (Is that right, Brandon) close to her? If so, she can meet up with Brandon. I'm sure one of the pit's at his shelter would work for her. Alternatively, is there could be a pit rescue in her area. ## sujewel · 2008-09-07T20:01:10.000Z bullyanimalrescue.org http://adopt-a-pit-bull.adoptapet.com/ http://www.petfinder.com/search/search.cgi?animal=Dog&breed=Pit Bull Terrier&preview=1&exact=1 Another possibility is getting an older dog, regardless of size. Don't know if that is an option, but it would be so great of her. I feel for the older dogs the most. *sniff* ## MommyofNiko · 2008-09-07T20:05:26.000Z She wants an older dog, 3 and older. She is taking her time and is going all over the board on what kind she wants. She doesnt care the sex or the breed THAT much as long as it fits. ## sujewel · 2008-09-07T20:16:28.000Z Just a few of the dogs in the list above. Some really beautiful pits out there. http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11205846 - Beautiful Pup http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11617552 http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11812403 http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11812431 http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=10390709 - Awe, this baby, this one!!! Too many to look through. Have fun in your search. PS. that dog looks like a shiba mix to me. ## JessicaRabbit (admin) · 2008-09-07T21:29:36.000Z Have her go to Pit Bull Rescue Central. They are such a great organization http://pbrc.net/webapp/cgi-bin/search.cgi/7ea63a6687ccaa7f413a1ed89c12d609 ## Romi (admin) · 2008-09-07T21:32:16.000Z Woo Hoo! YAY for GrandmaofNiko! How very exciting! Im sure she will find the perfect dog! ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2008-09-08T00:20:44.000Z I was going to say the same Barbara, I don't see husky / chow I see mostly shiba there.~ ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2008-09-08T00:22:35.000Z I can't see husky at all - shiba, probably - could check the tongue to see chow ## brada1878 (admin) · 2008-09-08T01:32:38.000Z cool! --- **Navigate:** [Forum home](https://nihonken.org/community/?format=md) · [Sitemap](https://nihonken.org/community/sitemap.xml)
