I want to start Project #2 on April 30th and had a fun idea!
I want to do a joint natural raising project! Say What?!?
Yep, we pick a breed of dog we want to raise. Perhaps we should stick with an original breed? Then everyone who wants to participate should sign up. Then, we'll start with the first person on the list and go down from there.
Each person will get the puppy for 1 day. In that day, you take pics, show it off, and let us know what your learning about it. Feel free to take part in projects, shows, or contests with it if you wish. At the end of they day, you send it on to the next person in the list.
We'll keep passing the puppy on to someone new every day until it is a fully grown adult. (So it will go on for more than 1 week).
Once the pup is a full grown adult, it will be a Duke's Group Dog! Meaning, it is co-owned by Everyone in the group. We can all take turns having it at our house and taking care of it. Basically, we keep track of who has it, and if you want it or they are ready for someone to take it for a bit it goes on to that person.
The goal being - The pet is never stuffed in a folder.
Everyone can then participate in projects, contests, shows...etc.. with it.
So what do you guys think? Sound like fun?
What breed do you think we should do? Just now I was thinking maybe we should do a Great dane since Duke is a great dane? Then I was thinking, perhaps I could breed him and we can raise up one of his pups and let them be the Co-owned DG dog. Wouldn't Duke be proud?
Anyways, it's okay if we do a different breed, or even a mix breed. Post your opinions below. Also post your name below if you want to participate!
