I've actually had someone come to my house for a visit (they were from out of town but staying with someone else) and brought their big dog. I wouldn't allow him in my house...I don't even allow my own boxer in the house. Some think its cruel but my son has asthma and I have severe allergies and will not let a dog that sheds in the house. I'm sure people think its cruel when I won't pet their dogs and cats either but I will go home a mess if I do. There could be many reasons she doesn't want him there....you just never know. I think you should respect how they feel since you are going to their home. |
Just a question, why do you own a dog you're allergic to, simply to keep him in the backyard? That DOES seem cruel to me... I'm not against outdoor dogs, a lot of farmers have them, etc, but if your son has asthma and you're allergic, why not just give the Boxer to a home who will enjoy him more??
