I like dogs. I have 5 of them: 3 labs, a pit mix, and a French Mastiff. I love 'em to death, but I don't recommend having 5 unless you a) own a farm or b) run an animal rescue facility. It's madness.
We have 5 dogs because my wife had 2 when we met and I acquired the pit mix from my roommate when he joined the Marine corps. We got our third lab from a cousin who was moving to Germany with the Air Force and the Mastiff from a guy in the Army headed for Iraq when no shelter would accept her due to her size.
I suppose we could have said 'no' to the last two but we're suckers for animals with nowhere to go, especially when it happens because of someone's service to the nation.
