They need attention, excercise, feeding and Vet visits.
We live two big dogs.They are my joy and some days my heartach as these attention can give them is often limited by my caregiving duties.
They have been my mother's companion but one is old.My mother identifies with her aches and pains but now I suffer the pain of watching two loved ones age and approach death.
Think hard before you add an animal to your life.They will be completely dependant on you.
Is this what you really need?
as far as housebreaking them i just slip them silently to the bottom of the septic tank where they can crap for eternity without ever affecting me again .
i tried to stay away from this thread as long as i could but i just went thru 9 months of stinking , yapping h*ll over a couple of the renters dogs so living in what amounts to a dog kennel is still quite fresh in my mind . two weeks ago the renter asked if i was going to let the dogs come back or was she going to have to move . i offered to help her pack TONIGHT..
I'm sure others have different stories to tell, but I can't imagine having an ounce of time or energy to devote to a pet, when caring full time for a dementia patient. That's just my take on it.
