This week, I had relatively boring classes and lectures. We did a little bit of new stuff, but overall, with no tests or major assignments, it was pretty easy for the week to pass quickly. In addition, since it is a bye week, there has not been a lot of things to happen today to entertain me either. This entire week as a whole MIGHT have been something that passed me by quickly without a second thought. That is, until my roommate suggested we get a dog.
For a bit of background knowledge, we had considered getting a dog for a while before moving into a house, but we ultimately decided not to because we were not sure if we had time. But now, we have an additional roommate and we are considering it for a real possibility. I would guess that overall, it has a strong likelihood of happening. One of us would have to own the dog outright for when we inevitably move out of the house, and we would also need to figure out what to do with it during summer and winter while we are not at school.
We spent the afternoon looking at different dogs on Craigslist and other sites, considering seriously whether or not we should get a dog. There are many pros to one, but the main con is whether or not we have enough time. We've been able to find two or three reasonably priced dogs for sale, and we just need to talk to our parents to flesh out whether or not it is truly a good idea. Normally, we might consider a shelter dog as opposed to a different dog, but one of our roommates is allergic to dogs, so we need to find a hypoallergenic breed.
Overall, the weekend has spiced things up for my life, and there are some interesting questions to answer about whether or not we are truly fit to own a pet. There are some maintenance costs as well that we would need to consider, but everyone is very excited thus far.
