The reason I did not finish my car this year....

Well, another summer has come and gone and my car is still sitting in the garage. I had the chance to pick up every part I needed to get it up and going and passed. What could posses some one to do such a thing?







My new hellion. She is a bull terrier. I have had my male bull terrier for about 3 years now and decided the time was right to get a female for him. He gets some company and a girlfriend and I get to chase another dog around the house. I go pick her up over thanksgiving in Georgia. Luckily my dad is pretty close to there so I get to pick her up on my way home. Pretty excited and just thought I would share.

I don't understand the correlation between car parts this past summer or a dog during the winter. Is that a $5k dog or what?

Pardon my ignorance but what exactly is a bull terrior good for that justifies a $3K investment? I assume they're not a hunting dog.

Re: The reason I did not finish my car this year....

They are a rather uncommon dog. They were bred for bull baiting back in the day. Now they are just a pet. What makes it worth 3k? The fact that they sell for that. Average price is somewhere around 1500, females more. Personally I would rather pay more for a dog that I know has a great pedigree and isn't coming from a puppy farm and her parents are great looking dogs. If I have one litter both my dogs are paid back as well as all the vet bills and dog food as well. Pretty easy decision.

Damn man, 3k? You are right though, they will pay them selves back plus more. This past summer I got a german shep, husky, lab mix for only $20! Never even had to train her either.

$3k is alot for a pet it seems, but then again we paid $400 for our purebred german shepherd, and it needed a $1700 surgery. We've never regretted paying the $2000 to keep him, he's the man.

have fun with the new pup!

Looks cool. I'd never spend that kind of money on a pet, but different strokes for different folks. My cat was free, been to the vet twice in her life, she's probably inbred or something who knows, and she's 20 years old and still tickin.

Thats alot of money for a dog. I'd rather go to a shelter to save an animal and pay a couple hundred bucks for shots. Cool looking dog, anyway.

Re: The reason I did not finish my car this year....

I paid $300 for my Pitbull/Boxer and hes an absolutely gorgeous dog. We get comments on him all the time, plus hes really great with my 8 month old son very gentile. I got him from a local shelter. I would rather rescue a dog then pick him up from a breeder or pay someone $3000.
When i move back to MN i think we are going to need to get him a coat, Total OC Dog. Afraid of the cold.
