Guess what I might be getting....
She's an airedale terrier and I would definitely post pics if I wasn't afraid of jinxing myself... but I'm not jinxing myself if I post pics of one of the parents, right?
So... many of you know that M is allergic to dogs. We have been talking about getting one seriously for 2 months, and we found a girl that is a breed he most likely isn't allergic to. He's going to go check her out this weekend and get locked in a confined area with both the parents to see if he has a reaction, and then if he doesn't we can have her!!
My worst fear is that he goes to pick her up, finds out he's allergic, and then we don't get her. But 99% of the time, if the person is not allergic to the parents (and trust me, he's going to like bury his face in both of their fur for an hour so there are no mistakes) he won't be allergic to the puppy. Apparently you can't even tell if you're allergic to a dog until they're full grown, so you can't even really tell when they're puppies. Just to be safe, he needs to spend time around the parents.
Just wanted to share the exciting news. Wish me luck that it works out!!

Thanks guys! I'm so, so excited about the possibility. We will know on Sunday if we are pet owners.
M gets choked up and just like sniffly when he's around certain dogs.It's not pleasant. I think he's going to look into the shot to help as well.
They don't shed a lot -- These ones are supposed to be the best for people with allergies - even though they have a lot of hair, they rarely shed and don't have dander like other pets.
We both want a new member of the fam ... so I am really really hoping this works out!
