We both (with my partner) dog lovers in fact we have 7 dogs. We treat them as member of the family. But since they are territorial we could not stay them together in one place. Three on the outside and 4 on our inside (the house). It is really hard to maintain cleanliness in the house if you have dogs inside your house. But since, they've grown inside a great barrage of barking dogs would be heard our neighborhood if we let them (the four inside) to let them stay outside. Mobhomeir here.. 101011

Hello Zhouxi, If you take good care of the dog, your house won't be dirty and disordered! I've been having inside dogs (one at a time) for 15 years and nobody said my house is dirty. But you have to spend some time for dog's bathing, dog grooming and for dog training. A well trained dog will never soil his home. You have to clean the dog's paws every time you come back from a walk. Also the dog must be regularly groomed so that you won't see dog's hair everywhere. What kind of dog is yours?

Hi shouxi partly you're right and partly you're wrong..i guess inu is right in his statement. I can say you're right because that is what I am experiencing it right now..but it is all our fault because we spoiled them while they were young before. We never let them know and trained where to pee and move their bowel outside. And right now that's my great problem, in order to maintain the cleanliness of the house I have extend and extra hour to clean up all their mess...huh!! So time consuming and I am already tired of following them up..no matter how would spunk them or whatever discipline to let them learn the proper place, but to no avail..hehhe thanks for responding again my friend..

I have several dogs that are territorial too but they are small so they are easy to control. I force them to be together and they are doing pretty good at it. I have one very rotten little male that thinks he should be the boss all the time though. I thought about having them all fixed so I wouldn't have to worry so much about it anymore but it would be very expensive. I may do it after my daughter gets through her graduation this year though. I treat mine like they are part of the family too. I have one that stays by my side all the time and is very jealous. I have to say that I am crazy about her. It surprises me because I haven't had so much love for a pet since I was a child. Good luck with your dogs and take care.
