[quote=Anonymous]If your kids end up doing any sports activities that will take you out of the home for large parts of the day on weekends, or travel sports where you will have to be gone on weekends, you will have to find boarding for the dog or take the dog with you. We only have one child and a very easy dog, but I still have to stay home by myself with the dog most weekends and miss my kid's games because its too hot to have the dog out for 12 hours. Also, when we go out for family activities - dinner, movie, party, etc., we have to always leave early and be mindful of not leaving the dog alone in the house for too long. Even though we have a large yard, you can't leave a dog alone in the yard for worries about the UPS guy leaving the gate open, escaping, heat stroke and just non-stop barking from being lonely. I would not get a dog with 3 kids (and I am a huge dog lover).[/quote]
