My fiancee wants us to get kittens when she moves in. I have an 11 year old black lab corgi dog. Any tips on making sure things to well?

[–]Thecrazyman96[S] 12 points13 points ago

Pretty much its up to your doggy if he/she likes cats or not, but definitely make sure to introduce the kittens to your dog right away so they can bond :D Edit: not this kind of bonding though xD http://i.imgur.com/c1nDY.jpg

How is raising a golden? A buddy of mine just had 2 pups(4 days old),and offered me one. I had a shitzu when I was young , but it always shit everywhere.

Golden's good dogs? My buddy also has a ...White fluffy dog. Not sure the breed.

[–]Cayterri 1 point2 points ago

Best dogs ever. I love all dogs, but I need my Goldies.

[–]Flybuy 1 point2 points ago

Be prepared to be constantly sweeping up hair filled tumbleweeds. Otherwise, awesome dogs! Temperament can't be beaten, and mine doesn't even bark until he thinks the kids are in danger.

[–]Thecrazyman96[S] 1 point2 points ago

Goldens are imo the best, friendliest, cutest dogs you can get. i would definitely take him up on his offer!

Now that kitten is a part of him!

[–]neon_overload 29 points30 points ago

I had the funniest reaction to that.

First I thought you had simply removed the kitten. Then I looked up.

[–]ArtThouAgitated 14 points15 points ago

Good, not good enough, now find a way to photoshop the dog in the cats mouth..

[–]SnakeGrunger 52 points53 points ago

[–]bwillb 6 points7 points ago

for some reason the cat looks slightly more dead.

[–]mynamemakesitalright 7 points8 points ago

He did eat a golden retriever

[–]bwillb 0 points1 point ago

good point.

[–]HortsTappert 3 points4 points ago

You photoshopped my thoughts. Thank you!

You didn't by chance get her from a breeder outside of San Francisco did you? Her puppy pics, and more current look almost identical to my dog. http://i.imgur.com/EVs63.jpg

Hear hear!

[–]freudian_nipple_slip 33 points34 points ago

That is the happiest dog I have ever seen.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points ago

you name makes me almost as happy as the dog.

[–]sidewaysplatypus 2 points3 points ago

Same, including my own. If that dog were any happier I think she'd just fall over.

[–]DroppedOnHead 1 point2 points ago

I never knew you could fall over from being extremely happy!

[–]userjack6880 23 points24 points ago

IT TICKLES!

[–]Thecrazyman96[S] 39 points40 points ago

[–]phaze2 20 points21 points ago

I live a fairly happy life, but I'll never experience this amount of pure, unadulterated joy.

[–]Quazifuji 23 points24 points ago

If humans experience happiness on a scale of 1-10, I think dogs experience it on a scale of around 3-30.

[–]neon_overload 2 points3 points ago

So 11 to 30 are unattainable for mere humans?

[–]Quazifuji 12 points13 points ago

Have you ever seen a dog with no leash on a beach? It's basically the physical manifestation of pure joy. I just don't think people are physically capable of experiencing that level of happiness.

[–]thedoginthewok 4 points5 points ago

yep

[–]neon_overload 2 points3 points ago

I feel cheated.

[–]Quazifuji 7 points8 points ago

In principle, I feel like I value intelligence and knowledge and am willing to sacrifice some happiness if it means being less ignorant. But there are times when I look at a really happy dog and just think "screw it, I don't care how stupid I'd have to be, I just want to feel like that."

[–]Thecrazyman96[S] 2 points3 points ago

glad i could help!

[–]AceVenturaPD 10 points11 points ago

Damn those golden curls be fine!

[–]trolavic 7 points8 points ago

I love this picture- full of joy.

[–]NoxDineen 7 points8 points ago

I'd post but I'm in the middle of exploding due to cuteness.

[–]Enxtar 6 points7 points ago

Wow. One of the most adorable photos I've ever seen. Wow.

[–]loltoneh 5 points6 points ago

Best dog smile i've seen on reddit yet

[–]zolfe 4 points5 points ago

My old golden made friends with a mouse. We had a mouse in the house that was hiding in a little nook. My mom was trying to kill it (no real way of getting it outside alive) and my golden went and laid so she was blocking the nook. True story.

[–]OhFrabjousMe 9 points10 points ago

That smile is contagious.

[–]Siinus 7 points8 points ago

Did you find her in a dumpster?

[–]Thecrazyman96[S] 11 points12 points ago

haha nope, just under a bush(the kitten)

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points ago

I love Golden Retrievers. It's like they're perpetually having the best time of their lives.

Man I love retrievers.... I don't have room for a dog sadly, but a kitten...

[–]mxymm 1 point2 points ago

It almost looks as though the kitten is trying to tickle the retriever and the retriever is faking a laugh.
