At what age did you got your first own dog

At what age did you got your first own dog?

I got mine when I was 33 years old and this one is Shoei. I'm raised with dogs and we always have several dogs in the kennel, but they are my husband's. tongue

Well i got a dog when i was 16 but i never really had to look after him cause i was too busy going out and so he was more my parents dog and now lives with them full time. So i would say Tyson is my first dog and i got him last year at the age of 25.

I got my first staffy three years ago, when I was 20, and thats Perrin. But Ida (my mini schnauzer) has also always been my dog, and she is 10 now, so I was 13 when she arrived in the family. But ofcourse, then I lived at home, so I didnt have the full responsibility for her.
We've always had dogs in my family, at least one, well no, there was a gap of about 6 long awful months after we lost our first mini schnauzer until we got home our now oldest one. But both before and since then we've had dogs.

i got my 1st dog when i was 5!!! my dad used have raceing greyhounds and me and my two sisters were all allowed to keep a pup each from our dogs litter, we were responsible for everything for the dog including walking,feeding, even running around a field with a rag on a string.
i still have the vhs videos of my dog when she started raceing and was there every time with her. sadly she died aged 12 which was just before i moved into my own home, since then its been staffies all the way Big grin
i even converted my dad.... he had just moved into a house on his own and seemed like he needed some company winking so i turn up with bimmer aka brindle staff(my dad didnt like bullbreeds so didnt tell him)..lol
anyway to cut along story short dad noticed it was a staff and doted on him and advised everyone that staffs made great pets(id been telling him that for years.. whew! )
