On October 19 my mother shipped me two boxes from Wisconsin to Germany. I received one box only five days later. (That's very fast as most of the time it takes about seven business days) The second box is still not here. When I track my package, this is what I see:

This box went to a different international sorting facility than the other, even though they were shipped from the same post office at the same time. Why? And why has it arrived and been processed through the same exact sorting facility on two consecutive days?
The *missing* box has a high value amount ($225) but its all in small, completely legal items. Baby clothes, candy, a backpack and a cooler) It's in a large box, not easy to lose. I do expect it to be held by German customs once it arrives and I will have to pay taxes on it but what's taking so long for it to even leave the US? Over the years my mom has shipped me several boxes and I've never experienced a problem like this before.
What's happening with my package? My baby needs those clothes I ordered!

You do know that, that area of the country was hit hard by a hurricane. Many places are still closed down or on a limited schedule. Even if they are up and running, which this is, things are backed up a bit. Just hang in there. Many people that work there had their homes destroyed or some are still without utilities.

Well, kiddo, I suggest you read every scrap of information on both of these breeds that there is. This means lots of internet research, lots of trips to the library to check out breed books and books on training, and conversations with a reputable breeder.
When you do that research, you'll find out that both of those dogs are not suited to your home. Both breeds have a high prey drive, and some dogs will chase/kill small animals (dogs) even if they're raised with them. These breeds both require lots of activity and exercise, least of which is an hour walk per day: rain or shine. In addition to that walk, you will need to provide your dog with a job, like weight pull, scent tracking or backpacking in order to satisfy his need to work. Do you really have time for this right now? You're 16, so if you're not already working, you probably will be soon. And your social life will surely suffer when you tell your friends, "Sorry, but I have to spend 2 hours a day working my dog, so I can't go out tonight."
Lastly, you will need to formulate a life plan for the next 15 years that includes this dog. You're 16 now, so who will take care of the dog when you go to college? You can't take him with you, and your parents didn't want it in the first place. What about after college, will you be willing to pay the extra deposit and pricier rent per month to live in a community that allows large dogs? It can get VERY expensive. What about when you get married? What will you do if your new wife doesn't like dogs, or is allergic? What about when children come along? Will you STILL have 2 hours a day to work your dog when that new baby arrives?
Do yourself, and your future dog, a favor and wait until you are an established homeowner with a stable life before you get such a time intensive dog. You already have two "little dogs" that could be made into great pets if you took the time to educate yourself on training.
