First Dog

[neems 2,406]

What was yours?

And for those who have them,what dogs have you got for your kids first dog?

 

Mine was a mongrel/lurcher that a neighbour found outside the local chippy,she was in a bad way and ended up having to be pts a year or so later.

But she was mine to look after while she was here,rather than being a family dog.

 

My lad wants a Mastiff or Wolfhound,but I've assured him there's a very slim chance of that,I'll probably get him a spaniel or lab (or better yet one of those crossed with a terrier) so he can get out with me and the lurcher with it.

Saluki /grey/whippet type lurcher £ when I had my own flat

Stepsons got a jack Russel,but TBH I wouldn't get my kids a pet as they would lose interest.

Yeah start small,we've had a couple of hamsters and my oldest was good with them,cleaned them out regularly etc

 

So I'll let him have a dog in the next couple of years if he's still as keen.

to be fair neems he was a great rabbit dog even took the odd hare and roe without a peep he would mark true and hjkc as good as many bigger dogs he died aged 13 in the outhouse but he took his share of bunnies and gave me many a good day

I've always like the whippets and whippet x's,could see them being good first running dog for a youngster.

 

Always fancied a whirrier of some type myself,but just never really had the space for one.
