[speaker002:] really ha how about that same names
[speaker001:] yeah do you let your dog in the house
[speaker002:] yeah yeah she's about forty five pounds or so
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] yeah she's about medium sized dog
[speaker001:] she like one of the family
[speaker002:] oh yeah oh yeah yeah you get up from your chair and she hops in and you never have the heart to kick her out because she's too friendly
[speaker001:] when you go on trips do you take her with you
[speaker002:] yeah yeah she loves to go in car she's pretty good too
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] yeah she just curls up in the back and falls asleep
[speaker001:] yeah I think dogs are less destructive than cats cats tear up your furniture you know that's the only thing I hated about my cat he
[speaker002:] yeah well she sheds a lot
[speaker001:] oh yeah
[speaker002:] so we're we're constantly sweeping
[speaker001:] and brushing
[speaker002:] yeah well she doesn't like to be brushed though
[speaker001:] oh that's too bad
[speaker002:] yeah I know you brush her and and she walks away
[speaker001:] yeah that's unusual most of them really they like those
[speaker002:] so we don't brush her much yeah that's what I hear but she doesn't
[speaker001:] those brushes
[speaker002:] yeah she can play Frisbee pretty good though
[speaker001:] oh yeah
[speaker002:] yeah she loves to chase things Frisbee or ball or anything
[speaker001:] we have a lake up here in the middle of town and went last summer I went up there and there was a dog chasing I mean catching a Frisbee and he was really good
[speaker002:] uh yeah
[speaker001:] they'd throw it and he'd be right there on it
[speaker002:] did he ever go into the lake
[speaker001:] no some of them do though
[speaker002:] yeah I don't think Sam would she's afraid of water
[speaker001:] she's afraid of water
[speaker002:] yeah she hates baths and she hates the rain
[speaker001:] boy yeah a lot of those dogs they they'll you know if they're after a stick or or a Frisbee and they throw it in the lake they'll just jump in there after it
[speaker002:] yeah I've never tried that with her there's a couple like parks around here with lakes but they don't let pets in
[speaker001:] oh I see
[speaker002:] so she's never had the opportunity but I don't think she would
[speaker001:] no not if she didn't like water
[speaker002:] yeah well it's like the first time she might not knowing it was water but then she'd learn
[speaker001:] what kind is she
[speaker002:] she's a Shepherd and Husky
[speaker001:] oh I'll bet she's pretty
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] what color is she
[speaker002:] uh brown and black
[speaker001:] oh
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] I'll bet she's pretty
[speaker002:] yeah it's like that's that's she looks really puppy like too
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] yeah the top of her is all blackish and then she gets lighter as you go down
[speaker001:] yeah I like animals I live in an apartment now but so I don't like to have animals in an apartment
[speaker002:] yeah we're I'm in an apartment now too and I'm the same way but it's kind of like out in the middle of nowhere there's big trees and fields so we can go out and run
[speaker001:] oh oh well that's different see I'm right in town
[speaker002:] yeah oh yeah that's got to be hard
[speaker001:] no yard or anything and you I think if you have pets you really need yards
[speaker002:] yeah you've got to have one
[speaker001:] or a place that where they can run
[speaker002:] yeah this is like one of the few apartments apartments around here that takes pets everybody here has a dog or a cat or a rabbit or something
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] yeah so they always play together
[speaker001:] yeah they ask for those big deposits for those pets too
[speaker002:] yeah yeah but she's worth it she's a good little dog
[speaker001:] I have a boyfriend and he has this duplex and he's he rented it out to these people that had a I don't know had one or two dogs and they just they ruined the whole thing
[speaker002:] oh really
[speaker001:] they wouldn't go outside to go the bathroom they ruined the carpet and everything
[speaker002:] oh I bet they stained all over it
[speaker001:] oh they did it was awful so he had to rip up all the carpet and throw it away they ruined it
[speaker002:] ooh yeah we've never had a problem with Sam because we'll go to work in the day and leave her and she'll just sleep all day and not make a mess
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] so I guess we're pretty lucky in that way
[speaker001:] yeah well it depends on the people too that make their pets mind
[speaker002:] yeah yeah I guess if you care about them they'll be better pets
[speaker001:] yeah well when now when he rents he says no pets when he rents to people because of that one experience he had where they ruined the carpeting
[speaker002:] uh yeah that's too bad though too a lot of people with pets need a place to live
[speaker001:] yeah yeah so how's Pennsylvania is it cold over there today
[speaker002:] yeah it's getting there pretty cold
[speaker001:] oh well it's really nice here
[speaker002:] yeah I bet it is
[speaker001:] except it's windy if the wind wasn't blowing it'd be really nice
[speaker002:] oh oh we got the wind and the cold up here
[speaker001:] yeah well it's it's uh it's pretty warm but it's real windy and it's cloudy
[speaker002:] ooh sounds like here except colder
[speaker001:] yeah I like the sun to shine
[speaker002:] yeah I'm waiting for it to snow some because uh Sam really likes the snow we take her outside and throw snow balls at her she catch them all
[speaker001:] well I'm surprised if she doesn't like water
[speaker002:] yeah she doesn't like when it's raining she hates to go out when it's raining but if it's snowing
