We figure once you have a baby, you're going to have to 'come home' anyway, so having a dog fits in better. We also figure it would be a good idea to get a dog, get it housetrained and get a routine before the baby arrives. So... anyone have an opinion on getting a dog AND having a baby? Good idea, bad idea? I mean we're probably going to go it anyway, but thought we'd see if anyone had any opinions.
We are looking at a Boston Terrier or a Beagle. Or some mix of that. We're going to use petfinder.com and it will probably come from a shelter... here is a sample of a few that we are looking at now, with the one in the middle being our current favorite (pending actually meeting the dogs and ensuring they aren't crazy!)

Well despite all my chaos i would love to have a dog and i have a 21 month old and one that will be here anyday. After going to www.petfinder.com i have been inspired to get a dog. they need a good home and i have one. it is a lot of work. for your first baby i would say maybe more work than you think but you never know what you can do till you try and if you want it you will find a way to make it work. so go for it. just get a smart dog.
