I love love LOVE dogs.There are trade-offs with dogs, but they are great! I've met so many neighbors walking my dog. I walk up to five miles a day because of my pup. I also take my dog to training. When we travel, we will put her in a doggie "hotel." A dog isn't for everyone. You shouldn't get one unless you really want one - there are too many bad owners out there. But they certainly have enriched our lives.
If all those vaccines I had been given in childhood hadn't made me so allergic to them, I would definitely have one. Some vaccine adjuncts have canine Kidney cells that can end up ruining a person's immune system for life. . . like mine.
If I get dog saliva on my skin or in my eyes, I am itching for hours and hours afterward. If enough are around, or the person is a poor housekeeper, it will trigger an asthma attack.
Sorry dude! I have an awful habit of answering these side threads without looking where I am. Sorry. i'll nix that post,Boy if we had the same attitude about ALL of Americas children as we do for our dogs, we would have no childhood hunger, abuse, and sexual slavery.

Sorry to hear that. When my husband and I were dating he told me he had allergies and asthma and was allergic to dogs. I said that would be a problem...I love love LOVE dogs.There are trade-offs with dogs, but they are great! I've met so many neighbors walking my dog. I walk up to five miles a day because of my pup.

Different breeds are cleaner than others, and if I didn't have a disability and was an energetic and more fastidious house keeper and energetic trainer that kept a dog to restricted areas of living areas... . it probably wouldn't be so much of a problem.Sorry to hear that.

Happy ending. Thanks presumably to flooding, he is no longer allergic to dogs. He says he'll occasionally get itchy eyes if he pets a dog than touches his eye but otherwise all is well.

I am sorry you cannot be around dogs.

We have always had dogs in my family, but it has been a while now. We are just waiting for the youngest human to get a little bit older and then we will get another puppy. We are looking forward to it.

As someone who got a puppy a few months ago, and forgot exactly what a puppy was all about since my last was 15 years ago, it's pretty similar to having a baby, at least for a bit. It was exhausting!

We try to adopt adult dogs. Whatever extra hassle it is to train them is worth it, since most are housebroken.

/----/ I agree 1000%. I'm sadly recently widowed, and family and friends pester me to get a dog. We had one for 16 years and I had to have her put down due to old age and illness. I tell them all the reasons why I don't want the responsibility and don't need that kind of companionship. I want to enjoy what time I have left (I'm 70) to travel and do the many things I gave up to raise my famiy.As a retired bastard, I find that more and more of my friends and acquaintances are having their lives impacted (and enriched?) by their family dogs. I've thought about getting a dog myself, but when they made the rule about having to pick up the dog's Schidt, I pretty much dropped the thought.
The other day, two friends who are choir members told me that they had to miss choir practice because they were watching their "grand-dog," who requires a lot of personal attention. This is a choir that, in the Covid Era, has only a dozen or so members, so missing the two of them was significant. And the dog is too sensitive to remain in a cage for two hours?
Other friends literally never go on vacation because it's such a hassle finding a place that will accept their dog(s), and putting them in a kennel is so expensive. They leave social events early because the dogs will be tearing up the house if they are out too long (true).
Often the dogs are totally untrained, so that people don't visit the households because they don't want to be pestered constantly by the dogs. And I'm really not interested in tales of funny things the dogs have gotten into. (I am not MUCH interested in stories about the grand-kids, much less the dogs).
Dogs can be a significant expense, especially when they get older. Dog food is generally cheap, but veterinarians have to make a living, eh? Cancer treatments, shots for diabetes, regular visits...they add up.
I see more of my neighbors when they are walking their dogs than at any other time. For most of the dog-walkers, I'd bet that they have no other hobby or avocation that takes up as much time as their 2 or three-a-day dog walks - which are not cancelled when the weather gets bad.
Then of course when the dogs die, they are devastated for months - much more so than when a close relative dies.
I think it's perverse. I understand that there are times when having a dog enriches one's life, but the trade-offs make no sense to me.
/----/ Nothing more low life than someone who abuses children and/or pets.Boy if we had the same attitude about ALL of Americas children as we do for our dogs, we would have no childhood hunger, abuse, and sexual slavery.

Given the number of abused dogs we have in our country, I respectfully disagree with you.
If you ever have to keep your dog in a cage , then you shouldn't have a dog.And the dog is too sensitive to remain in a cage for two hours?
