I'd hate for you to never visit your sister just because you can't bring your dog. Just visit for short amounts of time then. I love my fur babies but I'd never allow my sister to bring her bulldog over in my home. It has nothing to do with how I feel about my sister, I just don't like bulldogs.  |
Until I got Sissy, I would never have even thought to ask to bring my baby with me. Now, I don't like to leave her if I can help it, but there are just situations where that isn't going to be the case. With my feelings for Sissy, I would gladly now open my home to others with a smaller baby. But I still wouldn't welcome a bigger dog completely. I think it is much easier to welcome a little one as they don't knock things over with tails, don't slobber on stuff, and most of the time don't shed.
