So I have wanted another scout since the day I sold my last one in 1996. (Grad school is expensive). However, I agreed with the significant other to limit my fleet of cars at the house to 4 when she moved in. Since the 4 I currently have all fill needs that a scout really couldn't I have gone without. And in all honesty I really haven't had the time or money to put towards a scout purchase anyway since my 4 cars are all between 16 and 30 years old and are in various states of project- ness
We have 2 dogs between us. My senior 70 pound mutt and her 10 pound spaniel. Recently I have given in to her desire to foster a 45 pound pittie that was on the adopt or else list. We have had her a month now and I don't see her getting adopted by anyone else anytime soon as her sweet demeanor is overshadowed by a spastic nature and lack of grey matter.
So the dilemma is, the significant other really likes this foster dog. So much so that she has offered to let me expand my vehicle fleet in exchange for . Well, ...allowing her to expand our dog fleet. I have to admit I don't think this dog is a good fit for us and I'm not crazy about the idea of adopting her, ( she needs more supervision and company than 2 working adults can provide) but we won't be sending her back to the pound so if no one adopts her she will essentially be ours by default. Should I sell out on my feelings about this foster dog and at least get my scoutiut of it? Or stay true to my beliefs and risk ending up with this third dog anyway?
