[quote=Anonymous]I loved our dog.  She passed away a few months ago.  I miss her completely, but at the moment, I do not miss having a dog.  I mean, I miss the good parts, but I do not miss all the responsibility.  Given all of the care she needed at the end and the constant poop clean up inside), I admit, part of me was relieved when it was over.

I think most people do not regret it, if they go into it with a full understanding of the trade offs.  Dogs are awesome, but they also are a lot if responsibility.  So just make sure you understand that it means walks every day.  You have to get the dog out, several times a day, in all weather.  You can no longer plan last minute vacations unless you have a very flexible dog sitter.  And you never know when you will find vomit or poop on the floor when they are sick.

You also will have a friendly face full of love, every time ypu come home, even if you only left 5 minutes ago.  And I never felt unsafe in my house when my dog was there.  [/quote]
