Thanks for all of the replies guys, I am going to try to answer as much as I can remember to:
About the health testing, I wanted a dog with health tested parents just to have some sort of reassurance about everything so I could mentally say hey this dog is better and what happened to Des may not happen to this one, but after I thought about it, and thought about some of those shelter dogs, I thought, hell I could have a perfectly healthy pup from good parents and it could just drop dead one day, you never know.

And I cannot afford much of anything right now, and times are going to be tight when he moves out, but once him and Tyson move out (he is not moving out until I have everything money wise straightened out) I will be ok

That is why I cannot have another dog right this second, but will be able to in the future. And as far as the necropsy, I cannot afford it, and it was not something that he would be comfortable paying for, but if something did happen to the new dog, I know for a fact my dad would help me out

.

And about the fostering and rescue thing, there is only one pitbull rescue group within a few hours of here and I have worked with her, I think some of you may remember threads I have made about bringing those dogs in my house after she had "Taken them to the vet" before they came to my house, come to find out she works at a vet and was giving them generic antitiotics and hoping whatever would go away, heck I was bringing dogs in my house with kennel cough, giardia, coccidia and god knows what else, so I cannot go the rescue route. And our pound here is ok and all, but its $40 for a dog, any dog, these dogs are not spayed/neutered, no vet check, nothing, I don't feel too comfortable with that because I have Madison ya know?

And Tiff, as far as the Dogo, hmmmm I am scared that may be too much dog for me lol. That is why I wanted a pup, so I could research lines a bit and find me that bulldog that will more than likely be in the mid 30s fully grown

.

If I missed something I apologize, plese post it again and I will respond. Thank you for taking the time to talk to me guys it really means alot
