My dog hates being inside, she would much rather dig holes, play, run around outside. I think it is abuse when people keep their dog locked up all the time in the house. that really depends on the dog/breed. Our Shitzu, which was never breed to be an outdoor life type dog… typically doesn’t want to be outside for more than 5 mins, unless someone is out there with her. If it’s raining or wet/muddy out she will go out as little as possible, if at all. Labs we’ve had in the past wanted nothing to do with being inside unless they are exhausted or hungry. The last Akita we had didn’t care if he was outside or inside, as long as there were people around. Wherever I was he was… Probably the best car dog I had, loved to sit shotgun and cruise all day… --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/why-would-someone-do-this-to-a-dog/203725)._
