So, Sophie is just getting over a UTI and I have had her outside a lot so that she could pee whenever she felt the urge. However, she now seems to want to be out all the time. We have a fenced yard and Binky will often go out with her for a few hours, but Sophie will stay out for 4-5 hours at a time if we let her. Is this OK? I don't want her to be an outside dog, but she really likes to nap outside and just wander around, even if none of the other dogs are out (she also likes to watch the goats). She is very friendly and when she is inside, she sits by us. I just don't want her to be excluded, and I guess outside is better than being in the crate-though I only crate her for a few minutes at time if I can't watch her (and at night). BTW, the dogs are never outside when we are not home. I am just worried that her being alone outside so much might make her anti-social. What do you think?
