Thread: Are your dogs allowed indoors?

    Yes

    I have 4, and all sleep indoors.

    The Shih tzu is always indoors unless he's going for a walk or in the back playing/peeing. The other three spend alot of time in our large yard and hate to be indoors the entire day(rainy days). they also learned to whine when put outside to pee.

    Not to forget our little foster dog Velma Dinkley!

    Mine are indoors, though I wouldn't dismiss the idea of an outside dog if it were a working dog and it had access to an area out of the elements. I don't know how you do it with all those young puppies, especially with most of them being large lab mixes. If I were going to adopt a dozen dogs, I'd probably choose older dogs who have less of a chance and don't need as much attention. 12 adults is easier than 12 puppies. I take it they aren't really housetrained then? So they really aren't very adoptable if you for some reason need to rehouse them. I hope for your sake they never get in a fight when left together in this barn, or are these kennels closed at night? Are the pugs able to hold their own with these big dogs around?

    Mine sleep in the back sun room (well Harri sleeps with me ). But at this time of year they are out in their dog run during the day, in Winter they spend most of their time up inside.

    I have heard that no dogs should be outside during some of the summers or winters we have here, so Reggie stays inside with us 24/7.

    My dogs are entirely indoor dogs. I say entirely because I do not live in a house with a fenced-in area for them to be outside unsupervised in. Plus I do not know my neighbors or this area too well to know if I can trust to have my dogs outdoors unsupervised. I'm not worried about the dogs, I'm worried about someone letting them out, or if they get out if they'll be returned...

    My Charlie LOVES to be outdoors though so when we visit my parents he is pretty much out in their backyard the whole time
