It's not just the fact we are so active, She said she doesn't like having to run home to take the dog out all the time, then she talked all about the expenses, then worrying about pet sitters and on and on. So she pretty much piled on the disadvantages which I know are all true (we have had our share of dogs too). While we were departing I told her she is probably right but maybe down the road we'll adopt (again) and she said don't , when you get older the dogs are always under your feet following you around and you can trip over them easily and fall (which may be a valid point too). Yeeks my head was spinning and it is and remains a difficult decision not to be taken lightly as I would never want to bring a dog home only to find its too much and have to return him. Meantime teddy here is so adorable and we are still torn
