okay, so the family has worn me down to the point where i am considering getting a dog
And if i am getting a dog, i want a German Shepherd. Because they are boss as fuck.
Is this a fucking stupid idea? Anyone had one?
Shit, same! I really want a GS too! Though we won't be getting one until Dec/Jan.
I haven't seen many around Sydney and wondered if they didn't love the heat?
Such wicked animals
I think the long haired GS suffers a bit with heat. It can be very thick. Hips are sometimes a problem so if getting a pup do your due diligence on the parents and have the pup itself checked out properly.
thaaaaat may be an issue here.
Yeah, you’d think! Get a native breed. Maybe a dingo. You could call it, oh I don’t know... Deans?
dingo puppies are unreal cute. The two we have at one of our wildlife parks were beautiful. They are still not bad now.
How old are your kids? Just asking.
you would think too old
but some of the stories you hear out of Fraser Island...

Time for a Chihuahua!

Bonesetta is on me to get a puppy, wants a bloody chocolate Dachshund. I'm saying no way as I would want something else and more importantly I think it would be a hassle for us at times. So I've said we either move to NZ or I retire, then we can get a dog of her choice.
Like the look of the IG thought...I once met a choxy that was bloody cool too.

If you like running, IGs are awesome. We used to get 4-5 kms in together every morning, then she'd sleep the rest of the day.
They are also funny as shit when they get zoomy, and they are quiet, don't shed much (basically nothing) and are super snuggly.
God I wish I'd had her when I was single... fuck me, not just a a set opener, they come to you 'Oh, you're dog is so cute'...
Zoomies look like this:

Did a short kayak excursion from Kingfisher 18 months ago. Guide, a reasonably solid bloke, was telling us a story how he was out walking one time and this big fuck-off alpha dingo chased him into the water and stalked him along the shore. Scary.

When we were there we had this big dingo lurking around near us on the beach. Just kept wandering at a distance and staring. I took some photos of it and then a few days later we were somewhere else and a story came up about an attack on a kid. The description of where it happened was right near where had been and sure enough when I compared the markings on the dog they were the same.

You can see why they eat kids - they're hungry.

Best possible choice.
There's been some weird virus scare around where I am currently, visiting the family in NZ - and I got stranded with my sister and her 3 kids who I normally see once a year, and her two staffies.
Two months of those staffies has been awesome. -
My youngest's birthday today, and he found out we're getting a dog
He burst in to tears he was that happy
Definite parenting win today

When do you get him / her? Assuming it is a puppy?
All shoes, socks , etc need to be out of reach. Buy toys and chewy treats. Get some for the dog too.
