More specifically, whats in dog treats thats so different from regular dog food, and makes dogs freak over their treats? Why isnt this just added to regular dog food to make it more appealing to dogs, not that it really matters?

My cat is an indoors cat. I bought him when he was a baby and was already an indoor cat, and I don’t seeing him being an outdoor cat. What do you think?

We are in the early stages of making plans to adopt a dog. We are aware that adopting means we will most likely get a mixed breed but we have heard conflicting info on which dogs are compatible with young children.  The children are old enough to respect a dog but just the same we want a dog that will play but not too rough.  I’m just looking for some ideas so when it is time to start looking we know which dogs to rule out.
