In the 1970's Cant believe my mom would leave our dogs out all summer rain lightning whatever. They had dog houses but i bet it sucked for them. People are more compassionate to their animals now days.
@friday1: I grew up in a rural area and we always had at least one dog. My parents would not allow them inside the house for any reason. They slept under the carport. During the summer, we gave them extra water bowls and in the winter, they got an old quilt to lay on. Most people around us had yard dogs but none of them let them inside.After I started my first job, my wife and I got a black lab/springer spaniel mix as a house-dog. My parents loved her. They used to call her their black granddaughter. It wasn't long before they had a small inside dog of their own (PekaPoo).
