I have one child 4 years old about to start FT soon. I work 2 days a week(leave at 7 back at 6pm) and I'm a single parent. I am not having more children. I would get a small one as only have a 2 bed nice size garden however. I do know that a dog requires a lot of work and love and care which I understand it would be all my responsibility. We normally have one week a year away. Can anyone talk some sense into me ? As I wouldn't ideally choose to get One but it's for my child to grow up with. I would love to have a cat I am allergic  anyone have a pros and cons to help me ? Thanks so much xx
