if you have a dog

How/ when do you take him outside?

When dh is at work it is tricky. ON nice days I take ds with me but in the winter I run out quickly and leave ds doing something quiet. It takes only a few minutes and I make sure he is happy and busy but I always wonder how others did it when dh wasn't home. WHat will I do when I have 2 kids!?!?!

Re: if you have a dog

  • Do you have fenced in yard? We do, so I don;t think anything about letting her out unless it's raining. If it's raining, i will wait by the back door with a towel in hand to wipe her feet. Otherwise, I wait for her scratch at the back door to come back in.

  • I have a safe fenced yard so if I can't go out with the dogs, I can let them out and watch them from the sliding door.?

  • We have a fenced in back yard and an invisible fence around the perimeter of our property.  So, I let her in and out to the back yard to do her business....but she prefers to hang out in the front to play and watch the world go by.  At this point, I'm too pg to take her for long walks in the neighborhood....but MH takes her occasionally.  She's primarily an inside dog.

  • We let him out in the backyard,  it is fenced in and safe for him to run.  He will bark when he is ready to come in.

  • I don't think I could have a dog if I didn't have a dog door.  Our yard is fenced and the dog goes in and out as she pleases.

  • We have a fenced-in back yard.  It's a pain to take him through the garage and out, but we just let him out to play part or most of the day.  (Depending on the day).  I wish we had a doggie door!
