I am sorry you think I am rude just because I won't whitewash a situation that ticks me off no end. Maybe, if my blunt, honest remarks will make someone give complete consideration to ALL aspects of owning a pet, then all the flames will be worth it. People need to stop tip toeing around the real issues here and stand up for this poor pooch.

        to be honest, 30 mins may not be - enough exercise
        Regarding exercise - another doxie-lover
        it could be, it really depends on the dog - he'll let you know if he needs more
