[quote=Anonymous]I would think very carefully before getting a dog if I were you. We were in the same situation, I'm a SAHM, and just realized that a dog's needs would impact our daily schedule too much. Such a long commitment. We dog-sat for a weekend before deciding. Walks and playing were fun, but not enough to make up for the early morning wake-ups and that I got really sneezy. I would hate for a child to have to suffer with allergies to a family pet. It wasn't as obvious as I thought it would be to care for a dog - when to go out, how much to eat and drink, etc. Then you'll have to find a dog-sitter to go out of town, or even for a day trip. I wasn't worried about the money, but surely the vet bills add up as they age.[/quote]
