Pets kept indoors are safer than those let outside because they are shielded from hazards including automobiles, predators, and bad weather. Diseases and parasites are less likely to be transmitted to pets who spend most of their time indoors. Yet, more work goes into caring for an indoor pet because of the necessity to keep it active and occupied to prevent harmful boredom.

But the freedom and space afforded to outdoor dogs may be good for their physical and emotional well-being. Pets that are allowed outside can also exercise their natural curiosity and interact with other animals. But pets who spend most of their time outdoors are at greater risk of becoming hurt or sick, and they may be more challenging to teach and keep under control.

In the end, it's up to you to decide where your pet will be most happy and comfortable. Think about how your lifestyle and the requirements of your pet fit together. Your pet can do well in either setting, provided you give it the attention it deserves.
