Like Pamela at Something Wagging This Way Comes, we own a house for our dogs, or so that we can have dogs without anyone being able to tell us what dogs we can or can’t have. […]

(on the 11th floor) when we got our first puppy. But we knew we were only living in that city (and also the next one) temporarily, so we made due with apt living and our dog. It was great to finally get a house with her.

Our new house we definitely bought with the dog in mind. We were looking for one story anyway, but she’d just had her leg amputated, so getting rid of the stairs was even more important. It has hardwood floors – which are easier to keep clean, but a lot slippier than carpet for a 3-legger! She and Rita have both managed to leave a lot of scratches in the floors – someday we’ll have to refinish them!

Good luck with the new site!

We were lucky when we moved to IN. We were able to choose a few things for our house – like hard floors instead of carpets, a 6-ft privacy fence, and so on – that were all to make life good for our dog-loving ways! When we needed to buy a new sofa, we “tested” them in the stories, but only for how easily we could get fur off the fiber. I love the idea that your covert purpose is to help pets find homes… Such a lovely job!

I found a pet friendly apartment complex that had no weight or breed limitations. Since my dogs were mostly indoor pets, it didn’t matter that we had no big back yard to play in. In fact, Maya really could care less that we now live in a house with a yard. She is much more excited about getting to go on walks than she is about spending time in the back yard. Living in a house is nice, but living in an apartment with my dogs was not a bad experience at all.

And might I add car/truck buying as well? YES! When we got Titan 2 years ago, we tore up carpet in the house but down wood laminate (easy to clean), got rid of my microfiber couch, got a leather sectional (again, easy to clean), got rid of my lifted Ranger pickup cause Titan couldn’t get in it nor fit, Got a Jeep instead. Everything revolves around this lil booger and I wouldn’t have it any other way! 🙂 Fab post!

No glass tables. Coffee table high enough not to be used as a dog plate etc etc. Funny but a lot of our purchases are made after considering the dogs including clothes. Have a fabulous Friday.
Best wishes Molly

We’ve always had a house, but weve also moved many a time over the years and the dogs were a huge factor in the houses we would even look at. Location to running trails, big, level yard, one story. We turned down many a nice home because it wasn’t suited for the dogs. But they are family members, so it’s no surprise really.

When hubby and I first got married, we lived in an apartment, but no dogs were allowed. We had two cats, a fish tank and a cockatiel living in the apartment with us, but it was the first time either of us had lived without a dog. We closed on our house at the very end of October, and before the year was out, we had a dog!
