[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't listen to these posters. Under 80, with the right set up and your dog will be fine. Test it out and make sure the dog isn't a barker. Our dogs even have a [b]small kiddie pool to rest in[/b]. On spring and fall days they love it.[/quote]

Do they lay in it? I guess you fill it with water?[/quote]

Yes.  One dog likes to lay in it, the other will stand in it and get her rope wet.  Then she will take the rope and go chew on it in the sun.  My dogs are by no means outside everyday, but they do enjoy it.  They are outside today.  Sometimes they just don't want to come inside.  One set of neighbors home during the day and are fine with the dogs being out.  They said they say hello to them and asked if they can give them left over steak bones.  It's all very friendly in our neighborhood.  If my dogs barked all day or if I was a neglectful dog owner my neighbors would come and talk to me about it.

I'm sure our set up doesn't work for everyone.  I work four miles from home and can go let them in if the weather unexpectedly changes (though I pay attention) and I can go let them out during lunch on days that they are indoors.  We don't have a dog walker, but they are walked or jogged with each evening.  Plus they enjoy each others company and spend the days outside catching bugs, chewing sticks, etc.  [/quote]
