I was raised on a farm, so I've always been an animal lover, though I prefer dogs to cats, but that is just a personal thing. XH and I got a dog when he went through his health issues so that he had "someone" at home with him while I was working and the girls were at school. I was never a huge fan of small, inside dogs, but we lived on a very busy road with no fence so the dog we got was inside and man did we both LOVE her. When we D'ed the dog (Molly) was one of the very few things we actually fought about. In the end, I got her, much to his sadness, but he moved on with his OW who is a cat person so now he has cats, according to the girls. I still have Molly, plus Sparky's 2 big outside dogs and we are going to get a kitten soon because Sparky is more a cat person than a dog person. Molly is old and when it is her time to go, I will be devastated because I have had her since she was 6 months old, but I won't have another inside dog. Sparky's outside dogs are relatively young still, one just barely out of puppyhood and the other around 5. Sigh... ..
