I have a friend who has a dog. Is it safe to keep dogs and cats in the same house?

It is generally considered safe to keep pets of different species together, as long as they are properly socialized with each other and kept up to date on all necessary vaccinations. However, there may be some specific risks depending on the types of animals involved, so it's important to research any potential issues before making a decision about whether or not to adopt additional pets.
