We still own horses, which makes owning a dog like hanging an air freshener from your rear view mirror.
It all depends, frankly....dogs on a farm are one thing, dogs in a yard are another. All breeds are different as well. I knew people when I lived in Coronado that owned an Akita and wondered why the dog was unhappy. I had a Jack Russel at the time and guys would come by to borrow him to take to Dogs Beach. Absolute magnet.
We just "rehomed" a dog that was given to a lady by her kids: they though it was going to be more of a lap dog but the thing is a complete beast in the best sense of the word.
It took Dottie about ten days to settle in.
BTW, there are a lot of option for weekly care:
