I have a relative who fallen in love with my dog snowy. He insist to trade my dog with Pomeranian puppies ( which he know I like very much ), He say snowy is excellent guard dog. I like that Pomeranian puppies but I don't wanna trade made snowy because I love him so much. How about you would you trade it your mix breed dog (Snowy is mix breed) with pure breed is someone offer you?

i would never trade my dogs. even if i like the breed that the person is trading me for. it's even hard for me to give away the puppies when my dogs give birth. i don't care if my dogs aren't pure-bred, they're still the best for me.

not only me, but all my family. we have 8 dogs in our house, and even to a dog lover, that is a lot and can be difficult to maintain. that's why we can't take any more in when our dogs give birth. my brother used to have this "2-month rule" which is basically when the puppy doesn't get adopted it's for us to take care of, but they have gotten so many already. my friends would always ask me why don't we sell puppies. my mom doesn't want to because she likes screening the people we give our puppies too. she likes to know if that person would take care of the puppy as much as we take care of our dogs. and when you sell, you can't exactly choose who gets to buy your dogs :)

Oh no definitely not! We love our dog so much even if he really eats a lot, he is incomparable to other dogs. Our dog has made us very happy and makes us smile each day bu his simple ways such as watching t.v with me and my partner and taking a bath with us.

Yes, I agree. I feel that I have a role in taking care of my dog and making him part of our day. Even if I feel so tired, my dog eases my tiredness just by bringing his toys around me meaning that he wants to play. LOL

NEVER! Our dogs are part of the family. No amount of money or rare dog breeds will ever take their place. Just imagine how your dog feels! :)

I would never give up my dog, he is a part of our family, and I love him very much. If someone made me an offer like that I would turn it down. Things like pure breeds or mix breeds aren't important to me at all, if I love the dog, I will keep it. I don't think that any of friends or relatives would ask me something like that, because they would know the answer without asking If they asked me the same question about one of other pets the answer would be exactly the same, I don't intend to trade, sell or give up a single pet.

It wwould have to be for maore reasons than just to trade. If I had to move off of the ranch into an apartment, I would consider it, an apartment is no place for a loud barking hound who needs to run everyday. But I would trade for the good of the dog not just because i wanted some other dog.

Yeah that will good reason but I had bad memory leaving my dog when my family had to move to other island. We had to leave our dog in other island because its not possible to bring a dog. Its not allowed to bring pet from other island from other especially he is mix breed and had no papers. So we had to leave him to my uncle, but every day he is keep coming to our old house and wait there. When he hungry he go to my uncle house to eat and return to our old house. Until few weeks later he hit by car on the way to our old house. My tears still fell down every time I remember this. A dog can be really loyal to his master and not wiling to have new master.

Nope I wouldn't trade my dogs with anything especially if the dog is so dear to me. I would only do that if I have an unruly dog lolz... it's like asking me to swap my child with his.

I rather keep the dog I love. After all those happy memories with your snowy I'm sure it will be too hard for both of you to be apart. Pomeranian puppies can wait, as of now snowy can handle all the job.

I could never trade my dog mixed breed or full breed. My dogs are my kids. They are my family. Who cares if your dog is mixed or not? We fall in love with our pets for their personality and who they are, not because of what breed they are.

Yap that true my friend!. No one care if their dog is mix breed or not. From the first time I see my dog I already fallen in love because he is so cute. After one year many people fear him because he grow from very cute puppy into big dog with very good protective instinct, thats what make my relative fallen in love with Snowy
