with 2 kids 5 & 2 it will be really hard to look after a dog
Are you sure you want the massive commitment involved in properly looking after a dog when you already have kids 5 & 2?
Spending hours a day everyday walking the dog picking up its poop, trying to find someone to look after the dog if you want to go anywhere. Dog barking annoying your neighbours and waking up your kids, being unsure if the dog will ever harm your kids, dog climbing on visitors who pretend they don't mind but really they do, dog hairs on everything, the food and vet costs etc.
If you have any doubts then don't do else not fair on your kids or the dog.
