#1 Posted: 10/29/2009 7:54:33 PM I was talking to my wife and we both agreed that there is no way we would do it. She went as far as to say not even for 10 million. I said fine but the cutoff is 25 million. Seriously tho. Some rich guy walks up to you and wants to buy your dog for 2 million bux. Do you do it? If you have more than one would you sell your favorite one?

I wouldnt sell my dog for any amount. People would probably call me stupid, but i would rather have my dog and waht money i already have, then have no dog and more money. My Golden is my best friend, no way.

#5 Posted: 10/29/2009 8:13:44 PM What if you were in a casino and Robert Redford offered you 2 million for one night with your dog, what would you do? |

#6 Posted: 10/29/2009 8:21:37 PM Its amazing that someone can your dog and the fucked up judges call it property. And you can sue for the value of the dog. I love my dog so much its sick. She is the first one at the door when I come home. She has been right by my side when im crying because of my Dad. She understand my Tourettes seriously doesnt even batter an eye. She is so smart its unreal. I wouldnt give up my dog for anything. Also when someone even raises thier voice or another dog (we foster dogs too) even gets snippy with Oreo I go fucking ballistic. She is 5 and I hope we can get another 10 years out of her. There will never be another Oreo. I know there wont.

If so then later brutis Now my dad no way.. He goes to mcdonalds every single day and gets his dog 3 double cheesburgers plain and cuts them up in lil chunks for the spoiled fuck.Nobody messes with his boxer.. |

#9 Posted: 10/29/2009 8:35:57 PM i love my dog....his bags would be packed tho no question. If there was 2 million stacked up in front of you there is no way you would keep the fucking dog. If a guy has 2 million to offer you for it he will be living a better life probably. The real question is if Michael Vick offered you 2 million for your dog would you take it?

#12 Posted: 10/29/2009 9:16:02 PM I don't have a dog so I might be the wrong person, but i wouldn't even think twice. I would sell the dog for 500 K if they offered.

Sounds like an indecent proposal, but my dog Jack would make Robert Redford bite the pillow for 2 million |

#15 Posted: 10/29/2009 9:34:48 PM I look at this a couple of ways.
We have always viewed our pets as members of our family, not commodities that can be traded depending on the offer.
I'm not sure I could ever feel right giving a pet away for money- Frankly, this is the same reason I don't think I could ever breed animals for sale- I would never sell any of them.
Fortunately, while not incredibly wealthy, I don't need money bad enough to compromise myself-
Maybe I'm stupid for my loyalties to "mere" animals, but I have found them more reliable and trustworthy than most humans I have encountered.

#16 Posted: 10/29/2009 9:39:33 PM No chance in hell- just the thought of watching my dog walk away with some stranger & my dog looking back at me wondering why I'm not following makes me sick to my stomach.

I can always make (more) money-
Not judging someone if they would sell their pet- to each their own-
For me, money isn't that big of a deal- but principles are- Believe me, I've foregone plenty of money standing by my principles- I still have to look at myself in the mirror each morning-
You may think it's a petty thing- people have their pets euthanized because they move, etc-
Whatever works for you- |

#23 Posted: 10/29/2009 11:01:06 PM put me in the "sell" column. when you think of how much you'd be in a position to donate to shelters or the aspca, one could make the argument that it would be irresponsible not to. |
