would 3 dogs and 3 cats be to much for them to be in a house, we are looking to adopt a 10 mouth old dog, but not quite sure if we will have problems.

I have 4 dogs, a foster dog coming sunday, and 5 cats in our home. No problems here but we have a big house.

[Flatcoatluver]

yeah the dog we want to adopt is about 3 hours away and is a english setter, my dad would like to save his life and take him and t.j hunting.

Well, I regularly have 14 dogs and 8 cats in the house. The dogs rotate through so not all 23 are inside at once. It's a wee bit crowded, but not a problem!

depends how big your house is I suppose, and yard.

We have five dogs and 4 cats in the house, fortunately they all get along great!

Can't wait to hear more about the potential adoptee!!

[Flatcoatluver]

we decided to wait another year, because od our hectic scedule, but if he is still at the shelter in 2 weeks we will fill out a application.

3 dogs, 3 cats.. Do you WANT another dog? Because in my opinion, I don't think you'd NEED one. lol

[Love4BCs]

lol "One more couldn't hurt". That's what I hear going through.. but hey, you asked for opinions and I just gave mine.

Sorry if it offends you or anyone else.

Do your current dogs get along together,, are they okay when friends dogs visit or go for a play at the park?

do you know of the dog you want to adopt is good with other dogs and cats?

if so,, then i bet theyed do fine with another addition in the house

I have 5 dogs and 5 cats and everyone here gets along great!

My mother always said, "one child is nothing, once you have three, you might as well have a dozen". If that makes any sense.

Space is all relative, I think. My mom has 4 dogs and a cat in a small 2 bedroom apartment. Granted 3 of the 4 dogs are under 20 lbs. but still, 4 dogs. I love it because I'm in the thought of "the more the merrier" and more opportunities to snuggle with one of them, whereas my hubby thinks that's too many.

If you've got the financial resources, and enough love in your heart for one more, then why not? You'll make room for him/her.

I have 3 dogs, 2 cats & 5 ferrets in the same house, actually trailer. It's a big 3 bedroom trailer but it's still small compared to a house. It works great for us, no problems here.

It depends more on the animals & people though, not the size of the house/yard. If the animals get along & you can provide them with enough attention & exercise and can afford to care for them all then it should work out just fine.
