I sometimes wish...

Probably because you don't know what you want. And its a BIG decision, you have to be happy with what ever dog you get.
Im slightly in the same position...kinnda, maybe.
I have two breeds picked out. The Cane Corso and the Boerboel. I also have two breeders picked out, but for the life of me I cannot decided between the two breeds. They both would fit into my life perfectly. Its really frustrating.
Heck, I might just go with whatever breeder had a litter on the ground when I am ready for a pup. Or let Tyler decided, well he already has his mind made up that he would rather have a Boerboel, but this is just so hard for me to decided. I hate it!

vniuebveub. I feel the SAME way.
It's so annoying.
I'll decide to be all spontaneous and be like "JUST DO IT" and then I chicken out at the last moment and say nevermind.
SO annoying. But I guess it's just me trying to be smart and logical.
I think my main thing is that I still am unsure about breeds, whether I want puppy or adult, rescue or breeder, or whatnot. There's just so many different factors to take in and I drive myself crazy. Then I start over-analyzing *everything* from costs to is it going to be harder with two, what if Jackson isn't happy, blah blah... the thing was, when I got Jackson, I was so unprepared, I did not even have money to my name. I bought him with my Christmas money. But I MADE it work. I've spent so much money on him through the years to make sure he gets the best care in everything and I just MAKE it work. And I know I'd do the same for a second. But I still have all of the what if's and not making up my mind.

Because you are too smart lol you are a planner.
Most people just think "Oh look, enough money to buy a puppy. Oh look, a puppy!" and buy it
you brain is already like.. Ok emergency vet fund, apartments that will allow, where will I be in 10 years? in 5? dog sitters, will the dogs get along? how will I walk 3? What about if I change jobs? move?
After what happened with Romeo especially, I have become the super planner. I know what happened in my life and with him was a fluke, I couldn't have planned for it and it all ended up just fine but still.. It has made me more cautious/aware of the things that CAN happen even in the most well laid plans
On the other side of the coin, it has made me realize that perfect plans don't always mean perfection and sometimes you've just gotta jump and it'll work out
