Dogs are not furniture, and they are not appliances. They're members of the family. You'd never say, "I want a kid. Just as long as he's a boy, has blond hair, and doesn't poop too much."

But once you sign on, it's a lifelong commitment. If the dog is outside, it is out of sight, out of mind. And it will quickly become a HUGE chore and you will get none of the joy that comes from having a dog, and ALL of the hassle. Your kids will play with it for about 6 months, and then they will stop. And then what? he's going to chew on his leg. |

There's no way my wife will allow a dog in the house. I agree though that it's much better for the family/dog if he's allowed inside. I'd plan on taking him for walks/runs every day and playing with him, etc. but winters would be pretty tough. Which is probably why I'm still a little hesitant to get one, even though I love dogs. |
