Thanks for the replies. My GF's choice of dog would be a border terrier. I actually met some last week, and they were quite cat-like, i.e. small, quiet and sort of ponderous. Not as smug, though. If I can get over the poo thing, I think I might be OK with one. Michael, your nappy analogy is helpful. Woofgang, no, we're sickeningly compatible; the dog/cat thing is about the only thing we've disagreed about in four years! Eggcup, we love walking - can't wait to move. where are you? We're trying to find a place in Wyke, Preston or around Nothe.
