For some time I’ve had a strong desire to get a dog, but my wife is in opposition to the matter. To be more specific she is not against a dog per se but her condition is that it is one of those small poodle-type dogs. I have no interest in those however and want a German shepherd or husky that has more of a physical presence. Part of the issue is also that we live in the city and there isn’t a tremendous amount of space for a large dog so perhaps it’d get bored in the house. We also travel a lot so it might be home alone an intolerable amount for its emotional health. I’ve never actually owned a dog and growing up my family always kept cats and birds. I was always besotted with those but from my understanding the love of a dog included as part of a family is on a completely different level. It’d also be nice to have kids growing up with a dog as a friend in their formative years.

They would get bored in the house. Dogs like Huskies need a lot of exercise and activity so don't get one of them. Bull Dog are a good lounge around the house and chill with the owner dog. BUT, dogs need you like a kid needs you. I'm not kidding. Cats are a little more tolerant of you leaving for a night or two. Dogs, no way! You are right, emotional health will suffer. If you travel, you will have to find someone the dog can stay with that you trust and the dog is familiar with. 300 $farther
