I’ve had dogs. We would love a dog. Unfortunately, we believe our work & travel schedule is detrimental to having a pooch.

Work = we’re both gone about 12hrs per day Mon-Thrs.

Travel = at least one 3 day weekend away per month. And about 4 vacations away per year.

And retirement isn’t on the horizon. For now, we’ll stick with our kitty.

Depends on if you have money for a sitter and walker.

Nah, still feels like they’d be alone too much.
