    Anyone got a Maltipoo?

    My wife is adamant the girls need a dog in their lives.
    I'm fairly sure I dont need a dog in my life as I'm going to be the one left to walking duties.

    'But you walk every day darling?'. Yes I might walk 5-6 miles a day without fail but thats my time, no wife, no kids, me alone with my own thoughts, all about me, exercise and keeping on top of my mental health.

    However, I can see the girls want one.  I'm allergic to dogs so we are very much limited to a choice of hypoallergenic hair over fur.

    We've already got 3 cats in the house. Are maltipoos good with kids, cats and a grumpy old fucker of a human Dad who really really doesn't want the job of chief poo pickerupper?!

    You've already answered the question mate, the girls don't need a dog. 3 cats is a lot of fur energy and dogs become boring to families tragically quickly and they become a chore. They need stimulation, care and exercise whereas cats give the impression that animals are easy. Besides that, its their house and they can be at best unpredictable with new additions let alone their sworn mortal enemies coming in. Also, the cats claw is not a combination with puppies eyes especially inquisitive puppies eyes

    Our Therapy dog Bowyer play bowing with horses in the field next to the school.
    Loves his horses but can’t work out why they won’t play with him.

    Stan is on Antibiotics after being bitten by another dog off lead in the park. 

    It all happened very quickly and was a shock….but it could have been much worse. 

    Here is an example why I do not like dogs being off their lead.  However well trained they are things like this can happen, the dog on the lead would have meant no danger for your Stan.
    I hope he gets better soon.
