I prefer cats. But that might be because my dog (my first ever dog) is not very well behaved, in certain situations.
We can’t take him to the dog park or the Farmers Market anymore, because he is aggressive towards the other dogs. The only dog whom he really gets along with is my MIL’s dog. They love each other.
Also, my dog has to be in a kennel while Hubby and I are away from the house. We’ve given him so many chances to behave while we’re gone… but we’d always come home to a mess. With him being in a kennel/crate, we have to constantly think about getting home in time to let him go outside, to do his business.
I mean, he’s great with the cats! I love that. He’s really gentle with kids. He’s really sweet with me and Hubby.
We have talked about doggy behavioral classes, but those are expensive. I don’t know if we will ever be able to afford that.
We adopted him when he was about 3 years old, so we didn’t raise him from puppyhood. I wonder what went wrong, that made him develop some bad behaviors.
