This is just putting the feelers out and not decided so just asking here how plausible it would be.
I have an American Bulldog who is very much a pet dog. He is always in the house unless he wants to go outside and he is never ever left out there.
my newish bf has two dogs, they are working dogs and he has a huge dog pen for them in his garden with igloo kennels inside and space to run about etc.
Anyway as he is spending more time at mine he is feeling guilty about leaving the care of his dogs to his dad who he lives with.
He has been mentioning that my outdoor brick double shed would make an excellent dog kennel and he could put dog beds in there, that white floor stuff and fence off part of the garden for a run. Add a thermostat heater, saw the door in half so they can come and go as they please etc.
It seems feasible in terms of practicality with a bit of effort but when I was wondering is would his dogs not be upset that mine is in the house with the humans while they are stuck outside?
Would my dog be jealous that they get to play together and he is excluded?
Basically would it work out? I don't want my pet dog being turfed out like his dogs because I don't agree that dogs live outside, I think they are part of the family. I don't even cage my dog.
