We're almost getting a dog!

We have always wanted a dog...but then we think realistically how much of a big decision it is. Taylor's worried about his computer cords being chewed, as his family puppy used to do. We think about taking him or her outside and being around enough to do that. But then I see all these people at our apartment with dogs and I think, "Surely we are as responsible as these human beings and can also handle a dog." So we're going to try for June to find the right dog. I'll be home enough to train the puppy because of my summer break. I hope this happens. I have the need to care for and love something small and cute. :)
