[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've been talking about getting a small dog. Our kids are 12-8. Youngest is almost 9. We live in a sfh with a small yard (hence the desire for a small dog). DH works from home and I SAHM. My husband acts like he doesn't think we can handle a puppy and I'm like, we had 3 babies and are raising 3 kids?? Are puppies that much harder than babies? How did you know when you were ready to fit a dog into your lifestyle?[/quote] IMO no one is really ready for a puppy. We know they're a lot of work but it's hard to appreciate how much until they're actually living with you--and while a dog should fit your lifestyle, you will also need to adjust to the dog. It a relationship that you grow into and if you keep at it and stay patient and loving, the rewards will return to you 10,000 times. [/quote]
