You may go out there but it will be for only a minute amount of time. If your doggie is indoors than it can follow you around all over the house and be part of your life. It's such a pity when town doggies are kept in the back yard day in and day out. Live in a small town and I can attest to the neglect that totally outdoor doggies suffer. And our local cops don't care.  ~Joanne~ |
Yes, one of the main reasons I wanted a yorkie - to be inside and sit on my lap all day, cause now that I am older, I don't like to go outside much.
