Shall I get another dog?

Ok. The bathroom wasn't free and I needed a piss. Now fuck off and find a job.

Kiss my arse, I'm off for a wank.

Bugger, I inadvertently started a domestic

Moving back onto the topic, you (jim, not sussex or birdy) need to be a bit wary that if you do get another dog, it doesn't piss off the cairn. The cairn may see it as invading it's turf which equals misery for the cairn if new dog gets top rank or misery for new dog if cairn bullies it, so get some advice on integrating new dogs. Erm, this isn't specifically based on cairns being inhospitable to new dogs, more the age of the dog. At that age, it's going to be pretty settled in its ways and may well take umbrage at a newcomer.

EDIT: But what Oevil says is right, if you do get another dog, REHOME.  There's far too many dogs that need rehoming to fund the breeders and remember rehomed dogs are like ugly people - they're better, because they're more grateful.

I got rescue dog when he was 6 months old. The previous owners said he was vicious, unruly and would destroy things (Carpets, wooden furniture, corners of walls, etc, etc).

He's been with me for almost 13 years now and he's the best dog in the world! He never fights, never goes on the lead, is incredibly intelligent and has more friends in my local than I do

I think that all he needed was a bit of love and attention. He not the most attractive of dogs (He looks like he should be with a big issue seller!) But he's the best mate I've ever had...............................

My old dog was a rescue dog and she was the sweetest most trusting dog ever, never had any problems.  She was in the home through no fault of her own, she was owned by an old couple who bothe died

I want a dog, but what with having 3 cats and not being at home between 8 and 5 everyday it'd be a bit harsh to leave the dog on it's own.
