Are dogs really unhealthy to live with?


Answers:
All the hair contained in a small place is pretty unhealthy...but the forced exercise makes up for it on the health scale, and all the stress they relieve puts them even higher...I say, dogs are very healthy if not terribly sanitary. Who cares about health...we are talking about mans best friend!

But then, the homecooked diets put me on a forced diet of ramen noodles...and that can't be healthy LOL!
yes! they are FILTHY!
Yes. Get a cat.
no
If they are cared for properly NO!
Yeah, that's why everyone has one. Another dumb question...thanks for the points
Unless you have allergies and forget to take your medicine...absolutely not.
no, they just make things dirtier sometimes, but they d mae your mid healthier, always someone there
whatever bacteria problem people think they create is made up many times over by love and affection most people dont get from others. thats why theyre called mans best friend. life without pets isnt worth much.
Yes. I know this lady who was living with a dog and she died. Traffic accident...
I suppose if you don't take care of their health, and don't keep them and your living area clean, then yes, it could become unhealthy.

Only have as many dogs as you can afford to keep healthy, and that you can easily clean up after.

Usually, backyard breeders %26 animal hoarders are the only ones who end up living in unhealthy conditions, due to too many animals.
No , at least not that i kno of!?
No
YES! They poo everywhere and you have to pick up after them. Their food has all sorts of bacteria in them. They shed fur and don't bathe often. Sure you get an excuse to walk twice a day, but you can do that without a dog!
WHAT???

Dogs are not unhealthy, I have met people who scare me more than having a dog. YUCK!

If you house break your dog and keep the yard cleaned up too, you wont have any problems.

I actually had to get rid of my cat when my daughter was born, he would go in his litter box and do some kind of dance, then jump up and get in her crib with those feet he had just stomped all over with in his poo. That was unhealthy!
If they are given all of their vaccinations and cared for and bathed properly, nope. And actually, if children grow up with animals, they lower their risk of allergies.
Not if they're cared for. Children raised around dogs tend to have fewer respiratory problems (like athsma).
Why would you think that dogs might be unhealthy to live with?I am 84 years old, and except for three years serving in the military during WW2 , I have always had a dog. If I am healthy , it is because of my dog . He is my best friend; he is my most loyal companion; he forces me to get out of the chair and walk him several times daily which gives me the best form of exercise for a man my age, and he is lovable .
i live with lions thats healthy, so why cant dogs be healthy?
If you don't take care of them, yes. You need to bath dogs regulary, at least once a week, and make sure they are free of ticks and fleas. But, they are so lovable and bring a lot of joy to their owners! And in that way, they will actually make you healthier!
No, dogs are clean animals but still require his owner to bathe him a couple times per year. If they are groomed often, they are fantastic pets. I don't know what I'd do without a dog! They give us unconditional love and will make anybody smile, even on the worst of days. People with dogs are generally happier, healthier and some people think that you can live a longer, healthier life if you have a dog.
Dogs are not unhealthy to live with. People are unhealthy, they smoke, they spit, they don't clean up after themselves. Dogs are animals. They follow nature. Nature has its own solutions to such things. Keep things from getting out of hand, and you and your dog will be fine.
Generally, no. If they are well cared for (kept clean, regular vet visits, properly fed) there should be no problems. It can actually be beneficial to your health to have pets.
Dogs are part of human history for eons now. It is healtier, easier, fun and safe. Don't kiss the dog butt and will be ok.
Only dogs I know is unhealthy to live with are hot dog.
It is a proven fact that people with pets (cats or dogs) live longer. No they are not unhealthy to live with, if treated and cared for properly.
If that were the case I would probably be dead already. The only unhealthy reason I can think of would be allergies.
It's not unhealthy for humans to live with dogs, but it is unhealthy for the dogs to live with humans who don't keep their dogs clean.
Other than allergies or parasites dog's are healthy to live with. They even lower your stress level.
Unfortunately, some people do not understand how much work having a pet is. People who do not keep gardens or places where animals eat, sleep or deficate clean are encouraging bacteria and insect growth.
No , but some humans are .
