[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it ok to leave a dog outside all day in moderate temps (50-80 degrees) with plenty of water and shady places to rest? If the dog is not a nuisance barker?

DH and I are thinking about a dog and we've noticed that people do not leave dogs outside as much as they did up here as they did when we lived in the south.

Yes.  I believe the requirements are water, shade and shelter in an enclosed yard.  We just recently started leaving our dogs in our yard and they are happier and less crazed when we get home.  [/quote]

Not PP, here. And you know this how?[/quote]

She doesn't. On the rare occasions that I'm home from work during the day, I sometimes take walks and hear dogs barking at my approach. I also have a neighbor across the street who has a dog that barks when you come outside (not constant...just sort of a "who's that?"). Doesn't bother me at all. Since when are dogs expected to be totally silent? [/quote]
