Here is a little chart to help you compare and make your ultimate choice.
Dog | Baby |
| Poops in floor | Poops in floor |
| Slobbers on you | Drools on you |
| Chews on your shoes | Chews on your shoes |
| Barks when the doorbell rings | Screams when the phone rings |
| Eats off the floor | Eats off the floor |
| Requires shots | Requires shots |
| Leaves hair on the furniture | Leaves crumbs on the furniture |
| Humps stranger’s legs | Takes candy from strangers |
| Best controlled on a leash | Best controlled on a leash |
Have you made the ultimate choice? In what ways have you found the two to be comparable? Would you recommend one over the other?

All of those are valid points, however, you can put a dog in a cage and leave it alone all day. You do that with a kid and people totally lose their sense of humor about it.
I recommend starting with a house plant. If you can keep it alive, graduate to a dog, then if you can make it through house breaking and the chewing of all your possessions, you might be ready for a baby.
WOW. never thought of it this way.
I know that a baby costs more, 18+ years of expenses and all, but at least you can take a human on vacation with you without having to make special arrangements and train him/her to be self sufficient and use the bathroom!
Plus when they get super old, they get to take care of us when we poop on the floor!
Love this post.
I choose human ;)
Hahaha!!! I think you just put my puppy & baby-envy to rest for now. ;-)
LMAO!!!!
I already have 3 kiddos. I don't need either!
This is too cute!
HAHAHAHA! That's probably why they say you should get a dog to prepare you for kids!
I have a draft in my editor about how having a dog taught me how to be a parent!
having a baby is nothing like having a dog. i've had both. and now i have dementia.
get a pet rock.
Is it too late to trade in my kid(s) for another cat? Perhaps a hairless one?
Awesome.
We think dogs are marginally easier, because at least you can leave them at home alone.
I don't have kids for one reason - they have a long memory. I know I do.
Dogs forgive right away
Dogs can be left at home alone
Dogs will always love you
Dogs are always cute
Dogs don't need privacy
Dogs rarely talk back
Dogs are so easy to please
And in the long run, dogs are cheaper.
Now I need to call my mom and say thank you for chosing me over a dog.
