Wow... Six! Well bless your heart for giving them all a surely wonderful home! I get so frustrated when people (usually my relatives) say things like 'oh what do you need another dog for'? Yeh, I probably don't "NEED" another dog, but we have them as it is now and I intend to give both dogs a happy, healthy home. It's always nice to hear of others who take in even more than that.

I have a friend who has 4 dogs. It's so unfortunate because 3 of them are constantly barking at anyone who comes up to the door (and not warning barks, but seriously look p/o'ed) None of the dogs are properly trained and all I hear whenever I visit are the dogs being YELLED at and none of them listening. I know that's the kind of owner that I do NOT want to be. Whether it be 1, 2 or more dogs in my home.
