[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]what about the ages of my kids? any real difference a year will make in how they will take on the responsibility?[/quote] I waited until my kids were 12 and 13. However by doing so, I realized that the dog would be mine once they left for college so I wanted to make sure that I got a dog that I would like to have on my own as well. I love dogs so it was not too difficult for me, however I also needed to get a dog that my husband would fall in love with as well. We adopted a smaller breed so both my daughter or son can walk him whenever I ask, no risk of being pulled or not being able to control the dog on a walk. We take our dog to the beach with us on our summer vacations there. However, again mostly due to his small size and the fact that he’s well-trained, we can take him to a family member’s house to dog sit if we go anywhere where we cannot bring him. It’s worked out very well for us. [/quote]
