KrisK Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Flint, the dynamo, is just about 9 months old. Cricket and Dusty are approaching 10-11 years old. They can play for a while but it is evident that they are not up to Flint's energy level. So, with the DH's blessing, I'm in the hunt for another young dog. Personally, I was hoping for another minature schnauzer like Zachary, who had the energy to keep up with Jazz but DH wants a dog that is bigger so he can train him to pull the kicksled with Flint next winter. I'm in no rush, not looking for a puppy but probably a 1-2 year old male and likely a BC cross. I suspect there will be a rash of young dogs available around April/May when all the 'Christmas' puppies are no longer cute. so, for now, I'm just casually looking. I know the right dog will come along - they always have! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildFlower Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Very exciting! I'm sure you will know when the right one comes along. And he/she will be a very lucky dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliepoudrier Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Awww, there will definitely be some lucky dog in the near future! I think a teammate for pulling the sled is a great idea! Keep us posted. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachdogz Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 And a rousing cheer for DH....it is so much nicer when the guy you married buys into your dog addiction....at least it is that way at my house! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Cressa Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Do you have to look for certain traits if you want them to pull a sled? Just curious And can't wait to hear who the lucky dog is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
