DS2 is nearly three. I am home most of the time. I quite miss having a dog.
Pros:
- company, particularly for running
- kids would love one
- I really miss having a dog
Cons:
- we do travel, what would we do with the dog then?
- dogs not welcome in playgrounds etc
- faff of walking, picking up poo, etc etc
And then of course, I don't know what sort of dog to get ... I don't want purebred, and I waver between big (good at running) and small (portable, less poo) ...
