[quote=Anonymous]OP, we are in your situation (except we have 3 young kids under age 6), and we got a dog. It was a great decision for our family, so don't let rude comments deter you. Perhaps explore the reasons you want a dog, and how it will fit into your lives. Is it for the kids? Just know that you and/or your spouse will be doing all the work. Is it because you grew up with a dog in the house, and want the same again? It is perfectly possible to have a dog as a full-time working individual. I highly doubt that most dog owners in the DC region, at least, are SAHMs or SAHDs. Seems you have found a way to have the dog get out and have some human interaction during the day. Perhaps a neighbor could come over on some days. Weekends, the dog will be with you. Take what you read from anonymous detractors with a grain of salt. We've done it, and it's working out great, both for our dog and for us.[/quote]
