[quote]Well, I the QnA was helpful, but I might not agree with part which says you can keep a dog as a pet i.e you want it cause you would like to have one. 
Sahih Bukhari Volume 7 : Book 67 : Hadith 389 :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Narrated by Ibn 'Umar:

The Prophet said, &quot;Whoever keeps a (pet) dog which is neither a watch dog nor a hunting dog, will get a daily deduction of two Qirat from his good deeds.&quot;

And
Volume 3 : Book 39 : Hadith 516 :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Narrated by As-Sa'ib bin Yazid:

Abu Sufyan bin Abu Zuhair, a man from Azd Shanu'a and one of the companions of the Prophet said, &quot;I heard Allah's Apostle saying, 'If one keeps a dog which is meant for guarding neither a farm nor cattle, one Qirat of the reward of his good deeds is deducted daily.&quot; I said, &quot;Did you hear this from Allah's Apostle?&quot; He said, &quot;Yes, by the Lord of this Mosque.&quot;

And 
Volume 7 : Book 67 : Hadith 390 :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Narrated by 'Abdullah bin Umar:

I heard the Prophet saying, &quot;If someone keeps a dog neither for hunting, nor for guarding livestock, the reward (for his good deeds) will be reduced by two Qirats per day.&quot;

But then again I don't know why the angels won't come to a house where there is a dog, what do the angels have to do with dogs? Are the Hadith authentic? I know they are present in Sahih Bukhari, but don't you people think they kind of contradict the fact that a dog can be used for hunting guarding then why can't he be kept as a pet.[/quote]
