I was thinking maybe I should get a very old dog from a rescue home so that I can have the experience of a dog and see how it would be for me, giving a nice old dog a new home to have a peaceful end in instead of rushing into getting a dog and getting a puppy. If the old dog works out then afterwards I could a puppy later.

and out of interest what type pf dog would you say this is.

Romeo - Battersea Dogs & Cats Home

A VERRY cute one
sorry i have no clue what breed it could be but is very very very very cute!!!

Do you think there might be Staff in there? I'm not very good with dog breeds!

could be

adopting an older dog is a lovely idea.. on i am going to take up once i move to a bigger house! theres loads of dogs over the age of 7 been in my rescue for ages

Well I have lots of ideas in my head

I might do this, I will think about it a bit more. This may sound silly but you know that dog hubble, the one who was abandoned, I really like him!

Why not try fostering for rescue to give you an idea of what certain breeds are like and whether you think they could be suitable.

i thought about this bit i need it to be permanent, i dont want to traumatize my cats unnecessarily
