I want a puppy sooooo bad! Help me out with the pros and cons. I've had a dog before, but I'm trying to clear my head here. I just found this one at a local animal shelter:

PeeWee's blowing his coat right now. I had to wash the laundry twice because it was covered in dog hair by the time I got to folding it. Want to borrow him for a month?

 This didn't make it any better either: We had an outdoor cat, that disappeared a couple of month ago. Dd came home from her week long visit at great g-parents house and all of sudden noticed that kitty was no longer around.

Although, there is the question of if it's worth having to deal with all the heat from my family over the issue. It's crazy, they knew my Brika and LOVED her and still have that prejudice.

We got a black lab/chow mix about a year ago and it turned out to be a huge PITA. The main reason we aren't getting one is because we are gone 12 hours a day 5 days a week and we think a puppy needs more attention than that.
