My girfriend and I already have two dogs together, we don't live together the dogs just stay at my house. We are both in college and she still ilves with her parents, but they dont want any pets, and I live on my own. Like I said we already have two dogs, a two year old min pin (Charlie), and a year old boston terrier/beagle (Belvedere) mix. After a few months of having Charlie my girfriend wanted to get another dog, but I thought that Charlie was enough responsibilty. She begged and begged for almost a year, then finally I broke down and we adopted Belveder. Now both of the dogs are more than a handful to take care of, but now she wants another dog.
This time she wants a really small dog, something like a teacup poodle or something. I dont know how I feel about her wanting to do this because I already have to be more responsible for the two dogs we have because she doesnt live with me, and I dont really want to have to worry about another dog. She tells me that I dont have to take care of the dog what so ever because will take everywhere she goes, unless she's at work or home. But when shes not at my house I will have no choice but to take care of it. The only plus side for me is she said she will pay off one of my credit cards which has a pretty high balance.
So I dont know what to do. Should I let her get it, or should I stick to my guns? Have any of you hade experience with teacup breeds? Are they high maintainence? Please, any advice would help. THANKS!
