The GOVERNING BODIES have said

NO PUPPY!   I am not able to get the puppy.  Thanks to all of you who gave me support, I greatly appreciate it.  Unfortunetly, the governing bodies in my life, my husband and parents have said NO!  All the reasons you can think of!  Needless to say I am not happy and will not be for awhile.  Thanks anyway. Beth

   My hubby won't let me have a cat either.

Sorry Beth - maybe next time

Sorry sweetie, I was in your corner, sending Barb

I'm sorry Beth.  Poor pup.  

No puppy a family needs a puppy. Maybe you can talk him into one later. I talked my hubby into a puppy a few years ago and now have 2 birds 2 dogs a cat and a fish And I can tell you one thing thats to much poop for one person to clean up. So maybe no puppy is ok? after I think about all the poop I clean up.

Boy oh Boy, I must be a real pushover. We have 2 dogs, 4 cats, a turtle, and 2 aquariums. Did I miss the 'no animals" meeting during the guy training???
