My dogs are COMPANIONS. They are wherever I am... unless I am somewhere that dogs aren't welcome.

If I'm on the couch watching a movie, so are my boys. If I'm on a walk, they are too. If I'm at the computer, they are nearby. If I'm in the backyard, so are they. If I'm at the park, they are right there with me. If I'm gone and they can't come, they are inside of the house where it's safe.

Dogs are pack animals. They are happiest when they are with you. I cannot imagine depriving my dogs of being inside, with the family, where we are; not only would both of them be devestated, we would all miss out on their amazing company.
